Student Performance in Dealing with Fractions.
Aksu, Meral
Journal of Educational Research, v90 n6 p375-80 Jul-Aug 1997
This study investigated differences in performance when sixth graders were presented with fractions in three contexts (understanding the meaning of fractions, computation with fractions, and solving word problems with fractions). Student performance varied significantly in different contexts, with the lowest performance observed on the problem-solving test and the highest on the computations test. (SM)
