| Abstract | Two questions were investigated in this study: (1) How did the computational proficiency of sixth graders who had one year's experience with Developing Mathematical Processes (DMP) materials compare with an equivalent group of students who used the usual textbook program; and (2) What occurs when sixth graders study algorithms as sequences of rule statements? Thirty sixth graders were randomly chosen to use DMP Materials for one year while 60 other sixth graders followed the traditional program. When a test of whole number computational speed and power was given at the end of the school year, there was no significant difference between performances of the two groups. When the DMP group and a subgroup of the remaining sixth graders spent two weeks on a unit requiring verbal analyses of algorithms, findings showed that the data were inadequate to determine whether there were differences between performances of the two groups.
