For several decades, social critics have questioned the almost exclusive emphasis placed on formal instruction in promoting development of adolescents (Goodman, 1971; Illich, 1971) and proposed that education socialization all students, not just those bored with or alienated from school, would be facilitated by earlier experience world work, either as an alternative a complement to high school (National Panel High Schools Adolescent Education, 1976; Youth President's Science
Patterns pervade our everyday life and are natural familiar to children. Exciting new research in the field of Early Algebra describes development young children's algebraic thinking through meaningful study patterns. This paper contributes this by reporting on a case two primary schools South Africa looking at capacity learners for early grades. Data was gathered using Grade 3 learner tests focus group interviews based pattern tasks. The data analysis process examined learners' matching...
This article looks at writing tasks as a methodology to support learners’ mathematical problemsolving strategies in the South African Foundation Phase context. It is qualitative case study and explores relation between use of mathematics development problem-solving conceptual understanding. The research was conducted suburban school Cape Town with class Grade 3 learners involved intervention. Writing were modelled implemented by them while they engaged problem solving. Data gathered from...
Background: Mathematical equivalence is a critical element of arithmetic understanding and key component algebraic thinking which necessary for success in all levels mathematics. Research studies continue to highlight misconceptions related reveal that many primary school students have narrow limiting view the equals sign as an operation.Aim: This study aims investigate young students’ mathematical South Africa with particular focus on their interpretations sign.Setting: data was obtained...
