| Abstract: | The common goal of the empirical studies discussed in this analysis was to assist children in developing a meaningful understanding of the rational number construct, founded on durable fraction concepts. Some research has focused on partitioning; some on ratio and proportion. Contains 59 references. (Author/MKR) |
