Description

The article enumerates eight components that Johnson (2007) says make up contextual learning: making meaningful linkages, independent learning, doing meaningful work, collaboration, thinking critically and creatively, helping people to grow and develop, achieving a high standard, and using authentic assessment. These components characterize how the contextual learning model operationalizes situated, student-centered mathematics instruction in the study.
