Early algebra and mathematical generalization (2008, background): “…equations with variables on both sides of the equality; and (g) inter-relate different systems of representations for functions (see Brizuela & Schliemann, 2004; Carraher & Schliemann, 2007; Carraher, Schliemann, & Schwartz, 2007; Schliemann, Carraher, & Brizuela, 2007; Schliemann et al. 2003).”
A Learning Progression for Elementary Students’ Functional Thinking (2017, background): “…(e.g., Blanton, Brizuela, et al., 2015; Brizuela, Blanton, Sawrey, Newman-Owens, & Gardiner, 2015; Carraher, Martinez, & Schliemann, 2008; Lannin, Barker, & Townsend, 2006; Martinez & Brizuela, 2006; Nunes, Schliemann, & Carraher, 1993; Schliemann et al., 2003; Warren, Cooper, & Lamb, 2006).”
Using Math and Reading Curriculum-Based Measurements to Predict State Mathematics Test Performance (2007, background): “Since 2000, several articles appearing in Teaching Children Mathematics have described approaches to teaching flexible understandings of number relationships and their representation, including development of fuller meanings for computational signs and symbols, as algebraic thinking (Bay-Williams, 2”
Handbook of research on the psychology of mathematics education: past, present and future (2006, background): “While certain proponents of algebraic thinking in elementary school support the early introduction of the letter-symbolic (e.g., Schliemann et al., 2003); others hold the opposite position (e.g., Fujii, 2003).”
