Abstract
It is a truth universally acknowledged that relational reasoning is important for learning in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines. However, much research on relational reasoning uses examples unrelated to STEM concepts (understandably, to control for prior knowledge in many cases). In this talk I will discuss how real STEM concepts can be profitably used in relational reasoning research, using fraction concepts in mathematics as an example.
