Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated negative effects of concrete manipulatives on learners’ task performances focusing on their knowledge construction during learning with the manipulatives. Through analyses of lessons and learners’ thinking processes it is suggested that the negative effect emerges when the learners’ knowledge representation is focusing on the concrete object itself and in order to avoid it, it is important to construct knowledge representation focusing on the target concept in learning and relate it to manipulation of the concrete objects.
