Hillel, Joel; And Others
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v20 n1 p1-39 Feb 1989
Described is a year-long study of the way a group of six 12-year-old children went about solving a special class of geometric problems using a computer and a limited set of LOGO programing tools. Examines solution strategies deciding whether those strategies led to insights about mathematical relations. (Author/MVL)
