Nisbet, Steven – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2004
This paper reports on teachers' views of the effects of compulsory numeracy testing in Years 3, 5, and 7 in Queensland schools. Teachers were surveyed on (i) the validity and worth of the tests, (ii) the impact the tests had on their teaching of mathematics, and (iii) how they were using the results of the tests. Although the results reveal a…

Kramarski, Bracha; Mizrachi, Nava – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2004
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of forum discussion embedded within metacognitive guidance on mathematical literacy. In particular the study compares two learning environments: (a) Forum discussion with metacognitive guidance (FORUM+META); and (b) Forum discussion without metacognitive guidance (FORUM). Participants…

McDonough, Andrea; Clarke, Doug – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
Within a major numeracy project, there were marked differences in achievement between classes, which, as reported in Sullivan and McDonough (2002), we attribute to the teachers. To gain insights into the practices of effective teachers, six case studies of highly effective teachers at the Prep (first year of school) to Grade 2 level were…

Olive, John – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
Nathan entered third grade having already constructed a Generalized Number Sequence (GNS) for whole numbers that enabled him to coordinate sequences of multiples to find a common multiple of two whole numbers. Nathan was able to apply the operations of his GNS to his understanding of part-whole relations and his emerging use of fractional…

Manouchehri, Azita – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
In current study we interviewed 21 mathematics teachers who aspired to reform-based mathematics instruction. It was our hope to establish whether there were common traits among this teacher population, which could have influenced their supportive disposition towards innovative instruction. The participants shared several characteristics. (1) They…
