Marais, Catherine; van der Westhuizen, Gert; Tillema, Harm – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2013
This study is concerned with teacher knowledge of learners' help-seeking behaviour. Teacher estimates of expected help-seeking behaviours of learners were compared with actual help-seeking of the learners. An in-depth study was deployed with one mathematics teacher and her grade 8 class of 20 learners solving mathematical word problems. Data were…
