The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Textbook mediation of teaching: an example from tertiary mathematics instructors (2012, background): “These expectations and the schemes for using the textbook may help to reify notions of ability that are not based on students’ actual intellectual capabilities (Dowling, 1998; Zevenbergen, 2002, 2005 ), but rather on participants’ social behaviors (habitus, Bourdieu, Chamboredon, & Passeron, 1991).”
National numeracy review report (2008, background): “There is evidence that parental involvement or support is helpful. Cai (2003), for example, investigated the role of parents in the US and in China.”
Identity as a lens to understand learning mathematics: Developing a model. (2008, unknown): “The development of students’ mathematical identities has become increasingly important as technological advancement requires greater mathematical competence and confidence (Kilpatrick, Swafford, & Findell, 2001; Zevenbergen, 2005).”
Effective Teaching and Learning for Pupils in Low Attaining Groups (2007, background): “However, it has been argued that attainment outcomes are influenced by, and produced through, the multiple, complex and inter-subjective social processes in schools (Dunne, 1999; Zevenbergen, 2005).”
