Fernandez, Ricardo Lopez; Garcia, Ana B. Sanchez – Educational Research and Reviews, 2008
The study of errors made in subtraction is a research subject approached from different theoretical premises that affect different components of the algorithmic process as triggers of their generation. In the following research an attempt has been made to investigate the typology and nature of errors which occur in subtractions and their evolution…

Vanicek, Jiri – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2007
In the early stages of working with dynamical geometry environments, students make many more mistakes than if they thought out and implemented the same constructions on paper. Most Czech teachers have very little experience of doing geometry using computers. A methodology which could help them to teach students to avoid mistakes dependent on the…

Ross, John A.; Xu, YunMei; Ford, John – School Science and Mathematics, 2008
Previous research (e.g., Woodward & Baxter, 1997) found that Standards-based mathematics teaching provides marginal or no benefits for low achievers, in contrast with positive effects for middle and high ability students. A randomized quasi-experiment in 52 Canadian schools found that low achieving grade 7 and 8 students who received support…

Ashworth, Gregory J. – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 1983
The accuracy of data collected by Dutch geography students in a field study of commercial activities in a French city was monitored with data available from official lists. The causes of error, both in student work and official sources, and some lessons for future field work are examined. (Author/IS)

Varnhagen, Stanley J.; Varnhagen, Connie K. – 1986
Noting that while the number of errors gives a general indication of spelling ability, it may represent an oversimplification of the spelling process, a study examined the spelling ability of 40 Canadian third grade students of average ability. Subjects were divided into low and high spelling ability groups on the basis of the Edmonton (Alberta)…

de Courcy, Michele – 1998
This study evaluated a partial-immersion program in French in Victoria, Australia, an area in which little research has been conducted to date. The program has operated at an elementary school since 1991 and is the first English/French program of its kind in Victoria. French is the language of instruction for at least 40 percent of classes, with…

Gorard, Stephen; Smith, Emma – International Journal of Lifelong Education, 2006
This article emerges from a recent review of evidence, conducted by the authors and others, on the lifelong barriers to widening participation in higher education in England. This has led us to a consideration of the quality and relevance of the research activity in this large field of endeavour, and to the creation of a typology of the kinds of…

De Corte, Erik; Verschaffel, Lieven – 1986
Most studies of children's solution processes on simple addition and subtraction word problems have used individual interviews or the analysis of error patterns on paper-and-pencil tests as the primary data-gathering techniques. The present paper reports an investigation in which the contribution of eye-movement data was explored for studying…

Richardson, Arthur; O'Brien, Peter – 1987
The study was undertaken to investigate the errors made by high and low achievers in a mathematics test administered to students in their second year of high school. The focus of the study was to determine whether any common error types existed within or between the two groups or whether there were error strategies which differed between the two…

Chapman, David W.; Dhungana, Madhup – Evaluation and Program Planning, 1991
The quality of educational data in Nepal was evaluated by investigating three questions: (1) the extent of reporting error in national education data; (2) accuracy of error estimation; and (3) levels at which error is introduced. Evidence suggests that data may be more accurate than decision makers suppose. (SLD)
