Thesis (Ed.M.)--Boston UniversityIt was the purpose of this study to:
1. Determine the mathematical understandings possessed
by a group of teachers in-service.
2. Compare the levels of mathematical understandings
possessed by the different members of the group with
the various grade levels of teaching experience
within the group.
3. Compare the levels of mathematical understandings of
the members of the group with their length of service.
4. Compare the levels of mathematical understandings
of those members who have taken courses in the
teaching of arithmetic with those who have taken no
courses in this area.
5. Make a comparison between the levels of mathematical
understandings of those members with Bachelor's
degrees and those with Master's degrees
