Connecting multiplicative thinking and mathematical reasoning in the middle years
2021, Journal of Mathematical BehaviorCitation Excerpt :The next section describes the process of “segmenting” the variable in order to describe a learning progression. In previous projects, an approach to segmenting the scale variable (Griffin, 2007; Wilson, 1999) had been used to provide information for teachers - see Siemon and Callingham (2019) for a description of the process. Figs. 2 and 3 show the initial division, using the rubrics and discontinuities in difficulty level as guides to the placement of boundaries.
Investigating differential item functioning to validate a thinking skills learning progression for students with intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder
2021, International Journal of Educational ResearchCitation Excerpt :The program aimed to develop assessments based on learning progressions in foundational skills targeting the learning of students with disability. The method used to develop the assessment in this study was based on a process for defining criterion-referenced assessment frameworks (Griffin, 1993, 2007). This method has been applied in previous work to develop criterion referenced frameworks in the form of learning progressions to support teacher assessment and instruction of students with disability (Coles-Janess & Griffin, 2009; Roberts & Griffin, 2009; Woods & Griffin, 2013).
