Instruction on Derived Facts Strategies in Addition and Subtraction.

Steinberg, Ruth M.

Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v16 n5 p337-55 Nov 1985

This study: (1) documented the spontaneous derived facts strategies (DGSs) that second-grade children (N=23) used; (2) investigated how training in use of DFSs influenced the solution strategies children used to solve addition and subtraction problems; and (3) examined the role of DFSs in the transition to recall of number facts.
