Stephens, Max; Day, Lorraine; Horne, Marj – Australian Journal of Education, 2021
Generalisation is a key feature of learning algebra, requiring all four proficiency strands of the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics (AC:M): Understanding, Fluency, Problem Solving and Reasoning. From a review of the literature, we propose a learning progression for algebraic generalisation consisting of five levels. Our learning progression is…

Hartwig, Marissa K.; Rohrer, Doug; Dedrick, Robert F. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Many randomized controlled experiments in the classroom have found that mathematics learning is improved dramatically when practice problems of one kind are distributed across multiple assignments (spaced) and mixed with other kinds of problems (interleaved). In two studies, we investigated students' knowledge of spacing and interleaving. In Study…

Rausch, Thomas A.; Kaiser, Leann M. R. – American Association for Adult and Continuing Education, 2021
This paper examines current views and definitions of learning transfer as well as their dominant characteristics. An alterior way to view learning transfer as preparation for future learning (PFL) is presented along with its defining features. This paper is divided into five sections: (a) what comprises learning transfer, (b) the conventional…
