The elementary school teachers’ ability in adding and subtracting fraction, and interpreting and computing multiplication and division fraction
The purpose of this study was to describe the elementary school teachers’ mathematical skills on the numbers, especially fractions after they have participated in a workshop. The teachers’ abilities which would be described by the researcher in this study were the ability to interpret, to order, to...
