Description:
Davydov theorized that early mathematics instruction needed to target the development of empirical generalizations. Children's everyday observations and conceptions serve as the starting point for the development of scientific concepts in school mathematics. In this empirical study we examine how this theory is implemented in curriculum design and the resultant effects on algebra preparedness.
