Villasenor, Albert, Jr.; Kepner, Henry S., Jr.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v24 n1 p62-69 Jan 1993
Compared the problem-solving and computational skills of first-grade students whose teachers had participated in staff development to learn to teach using a Cognitively Guided Instruction framework to first-grade students whose teachers had not. Students in experimental classes performed significantly better in solving word problems and completing number facts. (MDH)
