This research aims to analyze ways of understanding of students with mathematics learning disabilities when learning fraction. The research was conducted in an Inclusive Junior High School in the West Java Province, Indonesia. This study is qualitative, with the single-case (holistic) designs. The case will focus on three students who suspected of…

While previous work in the domain of proportional reasoning has primarily focused on the coordination of integer quantities, this study investigates how students coordinate fractional quantities. Fine-grained analysis of two seventh graders' responses to a set of systematically designed proportional tasks, shows how their knowledge of…

A nine-year-old's conception of fractions was compared with his knowledge of units. He had effective schemes for solving some partition problems but did not consistently use units of different sizes in interpreting fractions. His solutions to equivalence problems showed no coherent method of verification. (MNS)
