Valenzuela, Hector – Online Submission, 2018
Contextualization is a method used for mathematics curriculum design within lesson plans and as a pedagogical practice in face-to-face classes. Many researchers are studying the effects of using contextualization in the teaching and the learning process for mathematics (Bottge & Cho, 2013; Perin, 2011; Young, Hodge, Edwards, & Leising,…

Rickard, Timothy C.; Lau, Jonas; Pashler, Harold – Online Submission, 2008
Many arithmetic problems can be solved in two ways: by a calculation involving several steps, and by direct retrieval of the answer. With practice on particular problems, memory retrieval tends to supplant calculation--an important aspect of skill learning. We asked how the distribution of practice on particular problems affects this kind of…
