Are We Having Fun Yet? How Teachers Use Manipulatives To Teach Mathematics.
Moyer, Patricia S.
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v47 n2 p175-197 2001
Reports on a study of 10 middle grades teachers' uses of manipulatives for teaching mathematics using interviews and observations to explore how and why the teachers used the manipulatives as they did. Concludes that using manipulatives was little more than a diversion in classrooms where teachers were not able to represent mathematics concepts themselves. (Author/MM)
