• A Learning Progression for Elementary Students’ Functional Thinking (2017, background): “Much research of late has focused on the question of learning over time, with scholars using learning progressions and learning trajectories as tools to understand and represent students’ developing understandings (e.g., Barrett & Battista, 2014; Battista, 2011; Clements & Sarama, 2004; Empson, 2011”
• Students’ understanding of the structure of deductive proof (2016, background): “As we illustrate later in the paper, our classroom studies are with students of about 14 years of age as this is likely to be the time when they might just be starting to learn to construct proofs in geometry.”
