Student Held Misconceptions Regarding Area and Perimeter of Rectangles. Boston University of Massachusetts. This source focuses on the misconceptions of students in relation to area and perimeter of rectangles. Carle (1993) describes that students enter classroom with personal schemas, anchored in their ideas and experiences, which impact on their interpretation, reception, and recollection of new information. The authors essentially recommends that the teachers should understand the impacts of such schemas. The author observes that th e students manipulate and nurse information without difficulties in class, only to forget the content after a while. Consequently, misconceptions are entangled into schemas, and then obstructing with the reception of information. Further much, the author discusses a framework including Andersons theory of memory, taxonomy of critical thinking dispositions and abilities, Ennis definition of critical thinking and cognitive psychology. ... The author has explained how the process of identification starts with pre-test analysis, which has five misconceptions including spatial bias, Equality Assumptions, Conversion Conclusion, Increase/ mitigate assumption, and Fallacy of multiples. Disclosure of different types of misconceptions has a direct implication on the period study, which primarily deals with the focussing such misconceptions affect students understanding of area and perimeter formulas. Also useful from this source are the some(prenominal) theories that the author has expl ained which can help teachers in establishing the process of getting rid of misconception as well as initiating education change this information can help in formulation the solution and recommendation in the current area of study. Although this source has some very relevant information that relates to the current topic, its usefulness is somewhat limited because it was published two decades ago, and many things have since changed. Therefore, its relevance is subject to further investigations on the more recent studies, to find out if any substantial changes have occurred in connection with the authors findings. The author concludes the thesis by noting that the multi-faceted framework is very useful in investigating ways of expression lessons, while focusing on elimination of particular misconceptions. Furthermore, the author makes suggestions on the manner in which the current innovative educational methods can be improved to aid students in understanding of formulas and mathem atics in general. I reacted very positively to this source, because I found its multi-faced framework of investigating students
