- Exploring mathematical connections of pre-university students through tasks involving rates of change (2018, result): “Only three students gave an interpretation as ‘rise over run’; this makes a difference from the studies of Stump [55], Deniz and Kabael [56] and Walter and Gerson [57] that claims that this is one of the most used conceptions of slope in teachers and students.”
- Hidden lessons: How a focus on slope-like properties of quadratic functions encouraged unexpected generalizations ☆ (2008, background): “For instance, Walter and Gerson (2007) detailed learners’ abilities to make sense of slope using concrete models, which enabled an alternate understanding of slope as repeated addition.”
- Can slope be negative in 3-space? Studying concept image of slope through collective definition construction (2011, background): “Walter and Gerson (2007) suggest that the emphasis of the mnemonic phrase “rise-overrun” has contributed to an instrumental understanding of slope to the extent that students are poorly equipped to make connections between slope and line position or slope and rate Educ Stud Math (2011) 76:3–21 DOI ”
