Peer reviewedSutherland, Rosamund; Rojano, Teresa – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 1993
This longitudinal study investigated the ways in which two groups of eight students used spreadsheets to represent and solve algebra problems and related this to their previous arithmetical experiences and evolving use of symbolic language. The spreadsheet environment supported students to move from specific to general thinking. Includes story…
