Investigations on Multiplication of Fractions.
Sai, Khoo Phon; Inder, Walter R. D.
Journal of Science and Mathematics Education in Southeast Asia, v7 n1 p34-41 Jul 1984
Three different models with continuous materials, discontinuous materials, and number lines were used to study the operation concept in six investigations on multiplication with fractions with pupils aged 11-12 in a Penang International School. All approaches could be understood by pupils, but they preferred the area and fractional models. (MNS)
