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…

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…
