Description

A reusable unit-level design in which a mathematics topic sequence is distributed across the situated learning model's components rather than taught as formula presentation and board practice. The article reports: "The lessons were developed on these eight key components of situated leaning model - four each on reflection, and technology; three each on cognitive apprenticeship, articulation of learning skills and collaboration; and two each on stories and multiple practice." Reflection was supported with specific prompts, and multiple practice used linear programmed instruction material.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • Lessons in English per the prescribed grade VII syllabus; component-specific supports such as prompts for reflection and programmed material for multiple practice

Constraints

  • Treatment lasted 25 days at 35 minutes per day, which the author calls a relatively short treatment period

Target Learners

  • grade VII students in English-medium schools

Learning Goals

  • grade VII mathematics content learned with reduced mathematics anxiety
