Project Spotlight | Visual Representations in Mathematics
Visual representations (VRs) are used in mathematics to help students solve problems or understand abstract ideas. Graphing data, placing numbers in a line, or drawing out a word problem are all examples of using VRs. Several NSF-funded projects within the DRK–12 portfolio are using VRs to enhance mathematical understanding. In this Spotlight, CADRE asks five mathematics education projects to…
