Peer reviewedTzur, Ron – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1999
Studies the co-emergence of teaching and children's construction of specific conceptions that support the generation of improper fractions in a constructivist teaching experiment with two fourth-grade students posing and solving tasks in a computer microworld. Reports that examination of the teacher's adaptation of learning situations (tasks) and…

Peer reviewedThompson, Patrick W. – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1992
Fourth grade children (n=20) were matched on a pretest and randomly assigned to either a wooden base-10 block or computerized microworld group. Instruction was designed to establish relationships between notation and meaning, extending whole number numeration to decimal numeration. Neither group changed whole-number notational methods nor had…
