The Examining Mathematical Word Problems Solving Ability under Efficient Representation Aspect (2013, background): “Yet, word problems pose difficulties for many students because of the complexity of the solution process [8, 21].”
The effects of using drawings in developing young children’s mathematical word problem solving: A design experiment with third-grade Hungarian students (2012, background): “In another taxonomy, Gagatsis and Elia (2004) coined the terms “decorative” and “informational” for naming the second and fourth types in Berends and van Lieshout’s system.”
Using diagrams as tools for the solution of non-routine mathematical problems (2009, background): “The presence of representations in a problematic situation can be autonomous or auxiliary (Gagatsis & Elia, 2004).”
