This study evaluated a partial-immersion program in French in Victoria, Australia, an area in which little research has been conducted to date. The program has operated at an elementary school since 1991 and is the first English/French program of its kind in Victoria. French is the language of instruction for at least 40 percent of classes, with…

Richardson, Arthur; O'Brien, Peter – 1987
The study was undertaken to investigate the errors made by high and low achievers in a mathematics test administered to students in their second year of high school. The focus of the study was to determine whether any common error types existed within or between the two groups or whether there were error strategies which differed between the two…

O'Brien, Peter; Richardson, Arthur – 1987
This report: (1) describes the mathematics test given to Year 8 students in the Mt. Druitt Longitudinal Study in 1986; (2) describes and discusses the results; (3) analyzes errors made by the students; and (4) suggests some possible interventions to address the errors made by students. The study dates from 1975 when funds were obtained to provide…
