Peer reviewedMcLeod, Douglas; And Others – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1978
The relationship between a cognitive style variable, field-dependence-independence, and instructional treatments that differed in two dimensions of discovery learning, level of guidance and level of abstraction, was investigated with 116 prospective elementary teachers. As predicted, field-independent students did better with minimum guidance,…
