Lee, Hollylynne S.; Starling, Tina T.; Gonzalez, Marggie D. – Mathematics Teacher, 2014
Research shows that students often struggle with understanding empirical sampling distributions. Using hands-on and technology models and simulations of problems generated by real data help students begin to make connections between repeated sampling, sample size, distribution, variation, and center. A task to assist teachers in implementing…

Paré-Blagoev, Juliana; Booth, Julie; Elliot, Andrew; Koedinger, Ken – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2013
As highlighted by the National Math Panel Report (2008), consistent results from laboratory studies have demonstrated that interleaving worked examples with problems to solve improves learning for novices. The purpose of this work is to create materials and tests that can be used flexibly in classrooms and which employ worked examples interleaved…
