Serfaty de Markus, Alicia – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2018
This quasi-treatment study, using a non-equivalent group design, explored how a set of animations related to various concepts in algebra impacted students' ability to learn as measured by changes in quiz and test scores. The concepts that were investigated were addition and subtraction of rational expressions, solving equations involving rational…
