Math Anxiety: Past Research, Promising Interventions, and a New Interpretation Framework (2018, background): “A common theme across studies is that teachers’ math anxiety contributes to children’s math anxiety through their use of particular pedagogical practices (Allen, 2001; Chapline, 1980; Chavez & Widmer, 1982; Markovits, 2011), such as overemphasizing rote learning instead of more conceptual activities”
Effects of Early Field Experiences on the Mathematical Content Knowledge and Beliefs of Prospective Elementary School Teachers: An Experimental Study (2007, background): “Developing deep understanding of the mathematics of elementary school is far more difficult than was once thought (Ball, 1990; Ma, 1999; Sowder, Philipp, Armstrong, & Schappelle, 1998).”
International group for the psychology of mathematics education (2008, methodology): “Ball (2003) and Ball and Stacey (2004) report on the way in which students’ recorded their solutions in the 2002 examinations.”
