Comparison of Lecture and Laboratory Strategies in a Mathematics Course for Prospective Elementary Teachers
Flexer, Roberta J.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 9, 2, 103-17, Mar 78
A 3-year study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of laboratory and lecture strategies in a course for prospective elementary teachers on the structure of the number system. Results showed that neither strategy was superior to the other as judged by students' examination achievement, attitudes towards mathematics, student teaching effectiveness, six-month retention, and responses to an evaluation questionnaire.
