In this study, we used problem posing as a measure of the effect of middle-school curriculum on students' learning in high school. Students who had used a standards-based curriculum in middle school performed equally well or better in high school than students who had used more traditional curricula. The findings from this study not only show…

This study examined the longitudinal effects of a middle school reform mathematics curriculum on students' open-ended problem solving in high school. Using assessment data from a large, longitudinal project, we compared the open-ended problem-solving performance and strategy use of high school students who had used the Connected Mathematics…

Hwang, Stephen; Cai, Jinfa; Shih, Jeffrey; Moyer, John C.; Wang, Ning; Nie, Bikai – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2012
This paper explores how curriculum and classroom conceptual and procedural emphases affect the learning of algebra for students of color. Using data from a longitudinal study of the Connected Mathematics Program (CMP), we apply cross-sectional HLM to lend explanatory power to the longitudinal analysis afforded by Growth Curve Modeling that we have…

Lo, Jane-Jane; Watanabe, Tad; Cai, Jinfa – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2004
The concepts of ratio and proportion are among the most important topics in school mathematics, especially at the middle school level. However, studies have repeatedly shown that most middle school students have difficulties with these concepts (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics 2000). This article includes ideas and examples used by…
