posted on 2023-06-07, 22:22 authored by Grecia Garcia GarciaGrecia Garcia Garcia, Richard CoxThe graph-as-picture misconception (GAPm) is a commonly reported error, but basic questions about its prevalence and degree have not been addressed. An interactive educational diagrammatic system was designed to assess and to help students overcome GAPm. Three activ- ities were administered to students (N=48) using touch screen techno- logy: a diagram/picture decision task, a multiple choice questionnaire, and an interactive racing car game in which the child moves a car along a track and a speed/distance graph is plotted concurrently alongside. Preliminary results demonstrate the utility of the diagram/picture dis- crimination task for detecting GAPm and providing rich information about childrens knowledge of different representational forms.
