Using Multiple Representations To Improve Conceptions of Average Speed.
Reed, Stephen K.; Jazo, Linda
Journal of Educational Computing Research, v27 n1-2 p147-66 2002
Discusses improving mathematical reasoning through the design of computer microworlds and evaluates a computer-based learning environment that uses multiple representations to improve undergraduate students' conception of average speed. Describes improvement of students' estimates of average speed by using visual feedback from a simulation. (Author/LRW)
