• The affective domain and mathematics education (2012, background): “Another attitudinal study focussed on secondary mathematics teachers’ attitudes to a range of alternative assessment methods (Watt, 2005).”
• Integrating Real-Life Data Analysis in Teaching Descriptive Statistics: A Constructivist Approach (2010, methodology): “…alternative methods of teaching statistics and discover their potential, they will have to adjust their perceptions, beliefs, work methods, and their readiness to invest in teaching improvement (Brown & Palincsar, 1989; Eisner, 1999; Fullan, 1985, 1993; Volet, McGill, & Pears, 1995; Watt, 2005).”
• Assessing Students' Mathematical Problem-Solving and Problem-Posing Skills (2013, background): “Ironically, the traditional mathematics assessments that were predominately used to measure the correctness of a student’s knowledge base are multiple choice, true or false, or recall questions (Watt, 2005).”
