Validating Learning Hierarchies for Sequencing Mathematical Tasks in Elementary School Mathematics
Phillips, E. Ray; Kane, Robert B.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 4, 3, 141-151, May 73
Seven forms of a programmed booklet based on an eleven-level hierarchy for addition of fractions were developed. One hundred forty-two fourth graders were randomly assigned to treatments; achievement, transfer, retention, and time were compared. No treatment was consistently superior, but developing sequences from hierarchies validated by test data appeared effective. (MS)
