Bofferding, Laura; Farmer, Sherri – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
The language that students use with whole numbers can be insufficient when learning integers. This is often the case when children interpret addition as "getting more" or "going higher." In this study, we explore whether instruction on mapping directed magnitudes to operations helps 88 second graders and 70 fourth graders solve…

Edmonds-Wathen, Cris – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2013
Effective mathematics teaching for Indigenous language speaking students, currently the lowest achieving group in Australia, needs to be based on fair expectations of both students and teachers. Teacher interviews in a small Northern Territory school, conducted within an ethnographic study, showed that teachers' decisions regarding level of…
