Publisher Description
In the first article in this series (Green, 2008), we quoted Robert H. Lewis's analogy (2000) in his paper titled "Mathematics--The most misunderstood subject." He said that the rules, formulae and algorithms were the scaffolding, which was not of much use unless one built the building. The building is the true mathematical understanding, involving ability to think, perceive, and analyse mathematically. This article is the second in a series of two papers which suggest some practical, spreadsheet-based ideas for helping students to make appropriate connections between particular algebraic concepts.
