A comparative study of Flemish and Chinese children’s mastery of basic arithmetic operations
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The present paper aims to investigate differences between Flemish and Chinese children from grade 3 till 6 mastering the four basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division). Firstly, the result showed that Chinese students outperformed Flemish students in each of the grades due to the high demanding curriculum in China. Difference in addition, subtraction and division skills between Chinese and Flemish students decreased with increasing grade. Secondly, the four arithmetic skills had different mastery levels for Chinese and Flemish students. Multiplication was relatively easier for Chinese students compared to their Flemish peers. Thirdly, the low achievers experienced comparable learning difficulties in both countries, while higher achievers reached highest mastery level at early schooling.

Residue Number System is a numerical system which arithmetic operations are performed parallelly. One of the main factors that affects the system’s performance is the complexity of reverse converter. It should be noted that the complexity of this part should not affect the earned speed of parallelly performed arithmetic unit. Therefore in this paper a high speed converter for moduli set {2n-1, ...

متن کاملPrediction of Sulfate Scale Depositions in Oilfield Operations Using Arithmetic of LR Fuzzy Numbers
In this study fuzzy arithmetic is presented as a tool to tackle the prediction of the amount of barium, strontium and calcium sulfates scales in oilfield operations. Since the shape of fuzzy numbers’ membership functions is a spread representative of the whole possible values for a special model parameter, fuzzy numbers are able to consider the uncertainties in parameter determinations and thus...
متن کاملIs precocious puberty linked to hypothalamic expression of arginine-phenylalanine-amide-related peptide?
The up-regulator regulation and down-regulator regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in central precocious puberty is not yet known. However, recent advances in neuroendocrinology have shown the controlling role of arginine-phenylalanine (RF)-amide-related peptides (RFRPs) on GnRH secretion in different phenomenon of reproduction such as estrus cycle and pregnancy, but the exact r...
