Vogel, Markus; Girwidz, Raimund; Engel, Joachim – Computers & Education, 2007
Research findings show the difficulties younger students have in working with graphs. Higher mental operations are necessary for a skilled interpretation of abstract representations. We suggest connecting a concrete representation of the modeled problem with the related graph. The idea is to illustrate essential mental operations externally. This…
