Learning Hierarchies--Numerical Considerations

Peer reviewed

Eisenberg, Theodore A.; Walbesser, Henry H. – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1971

The article presents numerical procedures for the validation and comparison of hierarchically organized curricula. Examples of specific hypotheses one should test, and calculations of five statistics for testing these hypotheses are given (consistency ratio, adequacy ratio, inverse consistency ratio, inverse adequacy ratio, and completeness…

A discussion of student-generated hierarchies developed for a mathematics objective by several small groups and validated on a second group. About 40 percent of the student-generated hierarchies were validated indicating that student input can be obtained to produce useful learning hierarchies. (Author)
