Psycharis, Giorgos; Latsi, Maria; Kynigos, Chronis – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2009
This paper reports on a case-study design experiment in the domain of fraction as number-measure. We designed and implemented a set of exploratory tasks concerning comparison and ordering of fractions as well as operations with fractions. Two groups of 12-year-old students worked collaboratively using paper and pencil as well as a specially…

Manches, Andrew; O'Malley, Claire; Benford, Steve – Computers & Education, 2010
This research aims to explore the role of physical representations in young children's numerical learning then identify the benefits of using a graphical interface in order to understand the potential for developing interactive technologies in this domain. Three studies are reported that examined the effect of using physical representations…

Rudnytsky, Joanne B. – 1982
It is more important for children to learn concepts in mathematics than to be able to perform automatic computational functions. By permitting manipulation of the relationships among visible objects, computer graphics can make it easier for students to grasp concepts and can serve as an essential ingredient in effective computer-assisted…

Pereira, Peter – 1985
Some mathematics educators feel that too little geometry is taught in elementary schools. This may have serious effects as many students arrive in the traditional high school geometry course without essential backgrounds in informal geometry. The result of this lack of preparation is often lower scores on standardized tests. In this situation,…
