Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Wang, Min; Walkington, Candace; Rouse, Amy – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2022
The purpose of this meta-analysis is to examine the effect of problem-posing on students' mathematical academic outcomes, including problem-solving skills, problem-posing skills, mathematical dispositions, and mathematics achievement. Twenty-one studies that were published between 1990 and 2019 with problem-posing as the intervention were included…

Equity and Early Math Experiences: Equity-Based Instructional Practices in an Early Math Curriculum for Toddlers and Preschoolers
Direct linkDirect link
Parlakian, Rebecca – ZERO TO THREE, 2023
The learning that happens before school entry provides children with a strong foundation on which to build new conceptual understandings. In particular, mathematical skills predict later math and reading outcomes in elementary school. This article summarizes existing research on equity-based math instructional approaches and provides a rationale…

Sibgatullin, Iskander R.; Korzhuev, Andrey V.; Khairullina, Elmira R.; Sadykova, Albina R.; Baturina, Roza V.; Chauzova, Vera – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
Algebraic thinking is a method of solving math problems that stresses the significance of general connections. Excellent algebraic thinking necessitates strong symbolization and generalization ability. Students aged 7 to 15 are at the Piaget thinking stage's formal operational stage. Teachers, especially those working with secondary school…

Problem Solving in Video-based Microworlds: Collaborative and Individual Outcomes of High-Achieving Sixth-Grade Students.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Barron, Brigid – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2000
Investigates the effect of collaboration on problem-solving performance and learning in the context of a complex, video-based mathematics problem. High-achieving 6th-grade students (N=96) were assigned to collaborative or individual problem-solving conditions. Results reveal that students in the collaborative condition outperformed students in the…
