171- Three Levels of Units: Necessary for Intensive Quantity, but Insufficient

Wednesday, April 9, 2014: 3:30 PM-4:00 PM
Room 219 ( Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
David R Liss II


Description of Presentation:

Many ways of reasoning quantitatively require taking three levels of units as given in operating. Yet, several significant differences were observed in how students reasoned with three levels of units. The implications of these differences for students’ abilities to reason with proportional relationships and intensive quantities will be discussed.
