The Role of the Number-After Rule in the Invention of Computational Shortcuts.

Baroody, Arthur J.

Cognition and Instruction, v13 n2 p189-219 1995

Focuses on a single case study of a mentally handicapped child to examine directly the relation between the development of number-after rules and a counting-on from the larger addend (COL) strategy. Examines the development of children's proficiency with n+ and 1+n combinations and the evolution of their counting-on strategies over time. (AA)
