Ärlebäck, Jonas B.; Doerr, Helen M.; O'Neil, AnnMarie H. – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2013
Functions provide powerful tools for describing change, but research has shown that students find difficulty in using functions to create and interpret models of changing phenomena. In this study, we drew on a models and modeling perspective to design an instructional approach to develop students' abilities to describe and interpret rates of…
