Integers as Transformations

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Investigates whether elementary school students can construct operations of thought for integers and integer addition crucial for understanding elementary algebra. Two sixth graders were taught using a computer. Results included both students being able to construct mental operations for negating arbitrary integers and determining sign and magnitude of a sum.
