Improvement in Arithmetic and Reading and Discovery Learning in Mathematics (SEED)

Zimmermann, Michael J.; Sassenrath, Julius M.

Educational Research Quarterly, 3, 1, 27-33, Spr 78

Three hundred fifty-nine pupils in grades four through six were given a supplemental guided discovery mathematics program designed for Special Elementary Education For the Disadvantaged (SEED). The guided discovery group improved approximately twice as much as the control group in arithmetic computation, concepts, application, total score, and in reading vocabulary. (Author/GDC)
