The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is the only nationally representative and continuing assessment of what students in the United States know and can do in various academic subjects. The 1996 NAEP in mathematics assessed the current level of mathematical achievement as a mechanism for informing education reform. In 1996, 44…

Tall, David; McGowen, Mercedes; DeMarois, Phil – 2000
The concept of function is considered as foundational in mathematics. Yet, it proves to be elusive and subtle for students. A generic image that can act as a cognitive root for the concept is the function box. This is not a simple pattern-spotting device, but a concept that embodies the salient features of the idea of function, including process…

Peer reviewedSchwarz, Baruch; Zehavi, Nurit – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1996
Discussion of the nature of the algebraic and graphical representations of functions focuses on a study integrating cognitive research and the development of an intelligent tutoring system (ITS), the Function Characteristics Tutor, to evaluate the effects of pairing representations of mathematical functions on high school students.
