Abstract | Backward transfer is when learning about a new topic influences an individual's prior ways of reasoning about a topic they previously learned about. This study looked at how quadratic functions instruction differentially influenced students' prior ways of reasoning about linear functions. Specifically, we compared students at three levels of reasoning about linear functions, low-, mid-, and high-level, using a pre/posttest design that bracketed a two-week quadratic functions math program. Results showed that students at different reasoning levels experienced different backward transfer effects, that particular mathematical reasoning processes were most involved in the effects, and that the effects spanned two dimensions of productiveness of mathematical reasoning. Results from this study are significant for better understanding the construct of backward transfer, and have implications for teaching quadratic functions.
