An Alternate Route to the Reification of Function.
Slavit, David
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v33 n3 p259-82 Sep 1997
Presents an alternate perspective for utilizing the action/process/object framework when discussing student development of conceptions of function. Describes a property-oriented view of function based on visual aspects of functional growth. Less emphasis is placed on how the variables are changing and more emphasis is placed on the properties that result from these changes. (AIM)
