Scott H. Moss – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This case study focuses on the implementation and analysis of critical algorithmic literacy (CAL) lessons in two grade 3/4 combination classes. The study involves one elementary school teacher and 36 students from a K-6 school in Southern California. By analyzing various data sources, I identified trends that could be helpful for future…

Cheung, Sum Kwing; Zhang, Juan; Wu, Chenggang – Educational Psychology, 2023
This study explored whether executive functioning skills and maths test anxiety were associated with children's untimed and timed algorithmic computational performance and their discrepancy. It also investigated whether such relations were moderated by children's basic maths fact fluency. One hundred and thirty third-graders were rated by teachers…

Tiffany Wu; Christina Weiland – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background/Context: Chronic absenteeism is a serious problem that has been linked to lower academic achievement, diminished socioemotional skills, and an increased likelihood of high school dropout (Allensworth et al., 2021; Gottfried, 2014). As a result, many schools have begun to embrace early warning systems (EWS) as a tool to identify and flag…

Chatterley, Louis J.; Peck, Donald M. – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 1995
Presents results of a project with second and third graders to establish concepts of equality that led to the realization that teachers often help students too much and may push them algorithmically beyond their ability without the development of proper referents. (Author/MKR)

Ter Heege, Hans – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1978
The focus is upon the introduction of multiplication within the framework of an algorithm program. Analysis of some observations of student solutions to multiplication problems is included. (MN)

Romberg, Thomas A.; Collis, Kevin F. – 1982
The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether children in grade 3 who differ in cognitive processing capacity add and subtract differently. The researchers drew upon information from three sources: individual results from a battery of 14 tests, an objective-referenced achievement test measuring a variety of arithmetic skills related to…

Weaver, J. Fred – 1979
Refinements of work with calculator algorithms previously conducted by the author are reported. Work with "chaining" and the doing/undoing property in addition and subtraction was tested with 24 third-grade students. Results indicated the need for further instruction with both ideas. Students were able to manipulate the calculator keyboard, but…

Wheatley, Grayson H.; McHugh, Daniel O. – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1977
The authors attempt to determine the effects of the use of direct and "combinations of tens" methods of two column-addition, ability, and grade level as factors in column addition efficiency. (MN)

McClain, Kay; Cobb, Paul; Bowers, Janet – 1998
This paper discusses an approach to the study of algorithms which values students' construction of nonstandard algorithms but also emphasizes the essential roles of the teacher and instructional activities in supporting the development of students' numerical reasoning. Episodes are presented from a 3rd grade classroom in which a 9-week teaching…

Caliandro, Christine Koller – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2000
Describes an informal research activity in which third grade students invent their own algorithms for multidigit multiplication and division. Discusses teaching implications and action research ideas. (ASK)

McNeal, Betsy – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 1995
Coordinates anthropological and cognitive perspectives on one child's learning of the standard addition algorithm in second and third grade. Analysis showed that the student abandoned his self-generated computational algorithms in favor of less understood conventional procedures. (25 references) (Author/MKR)

Cauley, Kathleen M. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1988
This study assessed the extent to which procedurally proficient children (N=34) construct the part/whole logical structure that underlies the borrowing algorithm in subtraction. Results indicate that an understanding of the part/whole logic of number may be necessary to understand place value and borrowing. (TJH)

Cauley, Kathleen M. – 1986
This paper presents an examination of the construction of logic in multidigit subtraction. Interviews were conducted with 90 grade 2 and grade 3 students to determine whether they understood the logic of borrowing and whether the construction of the logic was related to procedural expertise or corresponding conceptual knowledge. Of 34 students…
