Description of Presentation:
We measured students’ accuracy at comparing fractions to gauge whether autonomy-supportive instruction (ASI) influences flexible reasoning about fraction magnitude. Representation format and problem type were both significant: numerical notation > circle area model; SD > SN = DND; and performance was more consistent in a high-ASI classroom.
Session Type: Poster Session
