Download full textHarris, Richard J. – 1971
This extension of Harris' classification system permits classification of the interval-scale properties of any 2 x 2 (two person, two choice) game. The system is compared to taxonomies developed by various previous researchers. It is shown to permit compact description of any 2 x 2 game as an octet of numbers. It also permits rapid classification…

Shores, Jay H.; And Others – 1977
This study examines the extent to which modeling facilitates transformational problem solving in mathematics for children in kindergarten and first grade. Subjects were 20 children selected from each level. They responded to two problems for each of four problem types (counting on, story problems, quantitative comparisons, and ordination) under…
