The Board of Directors of CLLRNet recently approved numeracy
as a component of the language and literacy agenda of the Network.
Our lab is proposing a study to meet this mandate.
The study our lab is proposing involves the
optimization of children's
understanding of mathematical equivalence. We propose to conduct a
series of multi-site studies in which theoretically driven methods of
providing instruction on equivalence are compared, implemented, and
tested. These studies will link basic cognitive and developmental
research on children’s mathematical understanding with
teachers’ professional development and classroom practices.
