Peer reviewedSleeman, Derek H. – Mathematics in School, 1984
The performance of 60 fourth form pupils who had been taught to solve algebraic equations by the algorithmic or flow chart method was studied. A sizeable number of pupils were not using the flow chart method. Other types of errors are noted. (MNS)
