Kamberi, Saranda; Latifi, Ismet; Rexhepi, Shpetim; Iseni, Egzona – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2022
In this paper, we have tried to clearly explain the meaning of fractions and operations with fractions. Also, we have tried to illustrate with some examples how to apply the rules of operations with fractional numbers, giving different practical techniques through different figures, visualization methods, and concretizing problems. The paper…

Aleyna Altan; Zehra Taspinar Sener – Online Submission, 2023
This research aimed to develop a valid and reliable test to be used to detect sixth grade students' misconceptions and errors regarding the subject of fractions. A misconception diagnostic test has been developed that includes the concept of fractions, different representations of fractions, ordering and comparing fractions, equivalence of…

Shure, Victoria; Rösken-Winter, Bettina – Research in Mathematics Education, 2022
Teaching simulations such as scriptwriting tasks offer a novel way to support pre-service teachers in gaining diagnostic competencies and in guiding students to work through difficulties. We first report on the theory-driven development of a scriptwriting task, specifically the theoretically-founded language- and accompanying content-related…

Supovitz, Jonathan A.; Ebby, Caroline B.; Remillard, Janine T.; Nathenson, Robert – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2021
In this article, we use a two-dimensional assessment to examine the experimental impacts of a mathematics learning trajectory-oriented formative assessment program on student strategies for problems involving multiplication and division. Working from the theory that the development of students' multiplicative reasoning involves improvements in…

van Putten, Sonja; Blom, Nicolaas; van Coller, Angelique – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
This study investigated the developmental influence of collaborative games, in the form of game-based worksheets, on the performance and attitudes of sixth-graders in the mathematics classroom. It is posited that games have the potential to enhance learning through positive emotional experiences. Non-digital game-based learning methodologies are…

Harrison, Nancy; Van Devender, Evelyn M. – Journal of Computing in Childhood Education, 1992
Assessed the achievement in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of 93 fourth graders before and after they received either computer or traditional classroom drill-and-practice instruction. Students who received computer instruction showed greater increases in achievement scores in subtraction and multiplication than did students…
