Kurz, Terri L.; Garcia, Jorge – Mathematics Teacher, 2015
Since the 1950s, the understanding of how the base 10 system works has been encouraged through alternative base systems (Price 1995; Woodward 2004). If high school students are given opportunities to learn other base systems and analyze what they denote, we believe that they will better understand the structure of base 10 and its operations…

Gregg, Jeff – Mathematics Teacher, 1997
Describes an episode involving conditional statements and the notion of logical equivalence that occurred in a 10th-grade college-preparatory geometry class. Illustrates some of the confusion that can arise in connection with this topic, for both students and teachers. (ASK)
