Calculation Skills vs. Problem Solving; Scotland vs. Michigan.
Bidwell, James K.
School Science and Mathematics, v83 n8 p682-93 Dec 1983
Compares the ability of students in Michigan (N=302) and Scotland (N=221) to do simple calculation exercises and relational/practical problems involving number and operation. Although this is not a controlled statistical study (data collected included birth date and sex), sample sizes are sufficient to make the reported results meaningful. (JN)
