Logo and Transfer of Geometry Knowledge: Evaluating the Effects of Student Ability Grouping.
Knupfer, Nancy Nelson
School Science and Mathematics, v93 n7 p360-68 Nov 1993
Sixth-grade students (n=53) were paired homogeneously and heterogeneously by ability to determine the effect of LOGO on the transfer of knowledge in geometry. Low-ability students benefited from heterogeneous grouping, whereas the impact on average- and high-ability students was not clear. (Contains 21 references.) (MDH)
