Abstract: The aim of this study is to explore one Turkish high school student’s discursive development on reflection in relation to her teacher’s discourse through the commognitive framework. The data sources for examining the teacher’s and student’s discourses included classroom observations and task-based interviews. The data was analyzed in terms of participants’ word use, visual mediators, routines, and endorsed narratives from a commognitive perspective. The results indicated that the teacher’s discourse was based on an algebraic-formal and objectified approach during his instruction, which differed from the student’s geometric realization of reflection. Although instruction influenced the student’s discourse in some ways, the teacher’s discourse did not help the student move towards an algebraic realization of geometric reflection as a function.
