Comparing common mathematical errors to correct examples may facilitate learning, even for students with limited prior domain knowledge. We examined whether studying incorrect and correct examples was more effective than studying two correct examples across prior knowledge levels. Fourth- and fifth-grade students (N = 74) learned about decimal…

In two experiments we investigated what concepts are necessary for understanding hierarchical graphs, what misconceptions evolve when some of the…
