van Hiele Levels and Achievement in Writing Geometry Proofs.
Senk, Sharon L.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v20 n3 p309-21 May 1989
Secondary geometry students were tested for van Hiele level of thinking, geometry knowledge and achievement, and proof-writing achievement. Proof-writing achievement correlated significantly with van Hiele level entering geometry knowledge and geometry achievement. The predictive validity of the van Hiele model was supported. (Author/DC)
