Children's Fractional Knowledge elegantly tracks the construction
of knowledge, both by children learning new methods of reasoning
and by the researchers studying their methods. The book challenges
the widely held belief that children's whole number knowledge is a
distraction from their learning of fractions by positing that their
fractional learning involves reorganizing-not simply using or
building upon-their whole number knowledge. This hypothesis is
explained in detail using examples of actual grade-schoolers
approaching problems in fractions including the schemes they
construct to relate parts to a whole, to produce a fraction as a
multiple of a unit part, to transform a fraction into a
commensurate fraction, or to combine two fractions multiplicatively
or additively. These case studies provide a singular journey into
children's mathematics experience, which often varies greatly from
that of adults. Moreover, the authors' descriptive terms reflect
children's quantitative operations, as opposed to adult
mathematical phrases rooted in concepts that do not reflect-and
which in the classroom may even suppress-youngsters' learning
experiences. Highlights of the coverage: Toward a formulation of a
mathematics of living instead of being Operations that produce
numerical counting schemes Case studies: children's part-whole,
partitive, iterative, and other fraction schemes Using the
generalized number sequence to produce fraction schemes Redefining
school mathematics This fresh perspective is of immediate
importance to researchers in mathematics education. With the
up-close lens onto mathematical development found in Children's
Fractional Knowledge, readers can work toward creating more
effective methods for improving young learners' quantitative
reasoning skills.
John Oliver Hobbes (pen name of Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie,
1867-1906) wrote The Herb Moon, a country love story, in 1896,
shortly after divorce in 1895.
The Editors of the Saintsbury Memorial Volume have been encouraged
by the welcome which that book received to make a final gathering
of George Saintbury's writings. From a score of different sources
they have chosen essays and papers that have lain uncollected, with
their themes ranging from Captain Marryat to Erasmus, from Rosetti
to Xenephon, from Swinburne to Balzac's early pot boilers. Included
is an entrancing study of the literary associations of the city of
Bath; and the editors have followed Saintbury's own example by
collecting a Scrap Book more than thirty shorter notes and jeux
d'esprit on all kinds of subjects: wigs, sensation novelists,
Drummond and Ben Jonson, George Sand, compulsory Greek at Oxford,
Shakespeare and Welsh, Laurence Sterne tittle-tattle, Marcel
Proust, and much else in true Saintsburian vein.
