Liu, Fuchang – School Science and Mathematics, 2009
Four hundred and three 3rd- and 5th-grade Chinese students took the Multiplication Estimation Test or participated in the interview on it, designed to assess their computational estimation performance on whole-number multiplication. Students perform better when tasks are presented visually than orally. Third graders tend to use rounding based…

Miller, Gordon L.; Whalen, Mary T. – School Science and Mathematics, 1995
Explores abundant numbers and presents a proof that abundant numbers of every order exist. Readers are encouraged to use the included computer program to explore abundant numbers for themselves, look for patterns in the output, and consider further questions. (Author/MKR)

Funkhouser, Charles – School Science and Mathematics, 1995
Case studies investigating the effectiveness of procedures undertaken to develop number sense and basic computational skills in (n=12) learning disabled students in a K-1 classroom found that all students were successful in recognizing and matching the numbers 0 through 5 and adding sums to 5. (13 references) (Author/MKR)
