DeVenney, William S. – 1969
This report contains the findings of a two-year experiment with junior high school low achievers in mathematics. The main purpose of the experiment was to develop a program which would relieve low achieving junior high school students from the burdens of computation as much as possible. The experiment was also designed to determine what effect…
