Anat, Klemer; Shirley, Rapoport; Hanna, Lev-Zamir – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2020
This study describes a teaching process that offers teachers and pupils ways of constructing the division operation through illustration based on defining the reference unit (divisor), the reference whole1 and the dividend. We introduce a computerized dynamic environment, using an Excel spreadsheet, in which both teachers and pupils can…
