Children, algorithm and the decimal numeral system [PDF]
Investigações em Ensino de Ciências, 2010 A large number of studies in Mathematics Education approach some possible problems in the study of algorithms in the early school years of arithmetic teaching. However, this discussion is not exhausted.

Extending K-8 Mathematics Concepts in Alternate Bases
Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Georgia Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators, 2010 When learning to represent mathematics with manipulatives, many pre-service K-8 teachers rely on memorized rote procedures to perform the associated mathematical tasks; then they arrange the manipulatives to match their result, often with minimal ...

Natural Number Bias in Arithmetic Operations With Missing Numbers – A Reaction Time Study
Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2020 When reasoning about numbers, students are susceptible to a natural number bias (NNB): When reasoning about non-natural numbers they use properties of natural numbers that do not apply.

Representing numeric data in 32 bits while preserving 64-bit precision [PDF]
, 2015 Data files often consist of numbers having only a few significant decimal digits, whose information content would allow storage in only 32 bits. However, we may require that arithmetic operations involving these numbers be done with 64-bit floating-point

Mathematics anxiety: Effects of age, gender and culture
British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Many studies have indicated that mathematics anxiety is a significant problem for many people and is an important topic for research. Mathematics anxiety is multidimensional. In particular, it is important to distinguish between worry and emotionality components, and between trait and state anxiety.

A tutorial for understanding SEM using R: Where do all the numbers come from?
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Structural equation modeling (SEM) is often seen as a complex and difficult method, especially for those who want to understand how the numbers in SEM software output are actually computed. Although many open‐source SEM tools are now available—especially in the R programming environment—looking into their source code to understand the ...

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...
