Kling, Gina; Bay-Williams, Jennifer M. – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2015
"That was the day I decided I was bad at math." Countless times, preservice and in-service teachers make statements such as this after sharing vivid memories of learning multiplication facts. Timed tests; public competitive games, such as Around the World; and visible displays of who has and has not mastered groups of facts still…

Suthisung, Nisara – Journal of Education and Learning, 2014
The distinction between procedural and conceptual learning has long been a topic of discussion in mathematics education and the idea of compression into thinkable concepts that enable the individual make links between them (Tall, 2007). In addition to, the compression to thinkable concept was to be thinking mechanism arising naturally and…

Novillis, Carol F. – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1976
The fraction concept was analyzed to yield 16 subconcepts which are hypothesized to be hierarchically ordered. This ordering was tested using subjects in grades 4 through 6, and 18 of 23 dependencies hypothesized were confirmed. (SD)

Miller, Susan Peterson; And Others – Intervention in School and Clinic, 1992
This article presents the "concrete semiconcrete abstract" (CSA) teaching sequence for teaching basic math skills to students with and without learning disabilities. Guidelines include providing a minimum of nine instructional lessons (three at each level), each with four lesson steps. Validation of the CSA sequence and lesson format with 15…
