| Abstract
|
:
|
Educators and scholars discuss the roles of "invented" and "presented" representations, the kind the child creates versus the kind the teacher gives to students, as an aspect of the internalization of mathematical reasoning. Representations are the devices which people use to help them gain insights, and by examining the interplay between modeling and representation, the roles for representation can be defined.
