This bibliography presents annotated bibliographic citations for research reported in 1976 related to mathematics education from kindergarten through post-secondary levels. Ten research summaries, 138 journal articles, and 354 doctoral dissertations are listed. (SD)

Research reported during the 1973 calender year is listed, accompanied by brief annotations of findings. The listing is alphabetical by author within each of three categories: research summaries, journal-published reports, and dissertation abstracts. (Author/LS)

This annotated bibliography lists research related to mathematics teaching and learning which was published in the United States during 1973. The listing covers the levels K-12, and is divided into three major sections. The first section lists research summaries which review groups of research studies. The second section contains research reports…

This listing of research related to mathematics education provides brief annotations for articles and dissertations (K-12) published in 1975. Studies on college-level and other post-secondary school levels are also listed, but without annotations. (SD)

The calculator is used to investigate properties and characteristics of certain unary operations. These include how a number is related to the number resulting from a unary operation and the result of two unary operations. A discussion of the calculator algorithm to accomplish a series of unary operations is given. Record sheets to summarize…

This issue of the Journal contains twenty abstracts of published research reports and a listing of doctoral theses and projects summarized in Dissertation Abstracts. Research reported includes studies related to elementary school mathematics, secondary school mathematics, and college mathematics. For each investigation reported, the following…

The purpose was to ascertain whether there existed differential achievement effects associated with the factors and levels of context, form, item-stem and item-response format, size of common number, and school grade, as they relate to two variations of distributivity. Twelve 9-item tests were constructed and given to intact 4th-, 5th-, 6th-, and…

Research related to mathematics education which was reported during 1974 is listed. Brief annotations are provided for journal articles and dissertations. (SD)

Studies on distributive sentences by Weaver and by Hobbs are reviewed, with procedures and findings summarized. Data from Hobbs were reanalyzed to answer the question, to what extent did individual students tend to use the same solution method for all four types of open sentences? A one-way ANOVA indicated that there appeared to be no differential…

Explorations involving the use of mini electronic calculators in connection with mathematics instruction were conducted with two fifth-grade classes, two second-grade classes, and one third-grade class. Explorations are being continued with third-grade classes (last year's second grade classes). Selected activities and related materials are…

Limited systematic instruction was provided for two third-grade classes on a calculator-assisted approach to solving selected types of simple open addition and subtraction sentences involving three-place whole-number addends, moving from a Guess-and-Test procedure to more direct and efficient sentential transformations. Pupils exhibited a…
