Development of a Top-View Numeric Coding Teaching-Learning Trajectory within an Elementary Grades 3-D Visualization Design Research Project
Sack, Jacqueline J.
Journal of Mathematical Behavior, v32 n2 p183-196 Jun 2013
This article explicates the development of top-view numeric coding of 3-D cube structures within a design research project focused on 3-D visualization skills for elementary grades children. It describes children's conceptual development of 3-D cube structures using concrete models, conventional 2-D pictures and abstract top-view numeric representations integrated with the Geocadabra Construction Box, a computer interface that simulates these representations dynamically. (Contains 13 figures.)
