Many of my research papers about classroom teaching/learning approaches are available in the table below. You can download any paper for your own educational use by clicking on the last column in the table called Download. You can find papers by sorting the table by math topic or by type of research publication (shorter or longer). Use the drop-down boxes just above the table to select your sorting criteria. The table shows the most recent papers first, so you can also just scroll through and read the titles in the table to decide which papers you want to download. Authors of these publications include members of the Children’s Math Worlds Project team, my Ph.D. students, post-doctoral students, and colleagues at Northwestern University and elsewhere.
