Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to identify informal representation by students and teachers in arithmetic and mathematics lessons and to clarify their roles in mathematics learning.
As a result of the study, we constructed a theoretical framework to capture informal representation and clarified the roles played by informal representation in classes for constructing figure concepts and discovering the numerical relations in multiplicative table, using the framework. We pointed out the importance that teachers have a positive stance to take the students' informal representation as the subject of classroom discussion and they examine and analyze the teaching materials to realize such classes.
