Nature and Content of Generalization of 7- and 8-Graders on a Task That Involves Free Construction of Patterns

چکیده
Joanne Rossi Becker and F. D. Rivera San Jose State University, USA We report results drawn from 7and 8-graders who freely-constructed patterns from given figural entities and then described and generalized their patterns. Data from 22 pre-tests and 17 post-tests are categorized in four ways in terms of: the type of pattern generated; nature of the instances constructed; identification of attributes of the pattern; and type of generalization developed.
