Whitney Rhiannon Holland – ProQuest LLC, 2022
The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to measure the impact of a sequential use of manipulatives and visual models on third-grade students' multiplication fluency, math attitudes, and fact retention. According to results of this study, there was significant evidence that the students who gained a conceptual understanding of multiplication…

Rajiv Satsangi; Stephanie D. Sigmon – Remedial and Special Education, 2024
Whole number computations are a critical skill that serves as a foundation upon which higher-order concepts in mathematics are taught to children. To facilitate their instruction, educators often use multiple representations to support a child's cognition. Representations with physical manipulatives are widely studied through a graduated…

Thahir, Andi; Mawarni, Anisa; Palupi, Ratna – Online Submission, 2019
The reduced interest of students in learning mathematics and consider mathematics to be a difficult subject to become a serious problem in Indonesia, especially in one of the provinces in Indonesia, namely in Lampung. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the demonstration method assisted by Multiplication Board props to…

Ziegler, Esther; Edelsbrunner, Peter A.; Star, Jon R. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
Introducing new concepts to learners in an order of increasing complexity appears to be beneficial for learning, but typically introduction of concepts does not always adhere to this principle. We examined whether introducing new algebra concepts in a contrasted manner or in an order of increasing complexity instead of a different more typical…

Hurst, Chris; Linsell, Chris – European Journal of STEM Education, 2020
This small study sought to determine students' knowledge of multiplication and division and whether they are able to use sets of bundling sticks to demonstrate their knowledge. Manipulatives are widely used in primary and some middle school classrooms, and can assist children to connect multiplicative concepts to physical representations.…

Camp, Mary E. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
The purpose of this action research was to evaluate the implementation of technology integration with multiplication concepts (i.e., repeated, arrays, and decomposing numbers) for struggling third grade mathematics students. This study incorporated the use of virtual manipulatives and student think-aloud recordings to measure students' conceptual…

Strickland, Tricia K.; Maccini, Paula – Remedial and Special Education, 2013
We examined the effects of the Concrete-Representational-Abstract Integration strategy on the ability of secondary students with learning disabilities to multiply linear algebraic expressions embedded within contextualized area problems. A multiple-probe design across three participants was used. Results indicated that the integration of the…

Denham, André R. – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2013
Formative instruction on multiplication primarily focuses on rote memorization. This leads to factual fluency, but also develops a narrow view of multiplication and hinders the development of conceptual understanding. Theory and research recommend the concurrent development of conceptual understanding and factual fluency during the initial stages…

Denham, Andre – ProQuest LLC, 2012
This study purposed to determine the effect of an endogenously designed instructional game on conceptual understanding of the associative and distributive properties of multiplication. Additional this study sought to investigate if performance on measures of conceptual understanding taken prior to and after game play could serve as predictors of…
