Kapon, Shulamit; Halloun, Angela; Tabach, Michal – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2019
We compared students' learning gains in authentic seventh-grade classrooms (N = 144) in 4 different interventions that incorporated a computer game that aims to teach players to solve linear equations. Significantly higher learning gains were measured in the implementations that were specifically designed to mediate the attribution of algebraic…

Kolovou, Angeliki; van den Heuvel-Panhuizen, Marja; Koller, Olaf – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2013
This study investigated whether an intervention including an online game contributed to 236 Grade 6 students' performance in early algebra, that is, solving problems with covarying quantities. An exploratory quasi-experimental study was conducted with a pretest-posttest-control-group design. Students in the experimental group were asked to solve…
