Franke, Megan Loef; Carey, Deborah A. – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1997
Describes a study that explores the perceptions that children (N=36) have about what it means to engage in mathematics. The study, which took place in reform-minded classrooms, concludes that children have a variety of perceptions and most do not feel that success is determined by speed and accuracy.
