Generalizing-Promoting Actions: how Classroom Collaborations Can Support Students Mathematical Generalizations (2011, background): “The role of generalization has enjoyed increased prominence particularly in algebra classrooms, in which calls for reform state the need to develop algebraic reasoning in terms of generalizing activities (Kaput, 1999; Kieran, 2004).”
Delayed benefits of learning elementary algebraic transformations through contrasted comparisons (2014, background): “Learning algebra requires not only making use of the formal language in rich contextual settings but also learning the language itself with its rules and conventions (Kieran, 2004; Kirshner & Awtry, 2004).”
