Abstract | This article explores prospective teachers' understandings of one million to gain insights into the development of adult understanding of large numbers. Themes in the prospective teachers' work included number associated with a quantity of objects, number as an abstraction, and additive and multiplicative approaches. The authors suggest that the development of both qualitative orientations and formal abstract thinking are critical in developing understanding of large number. (Contains 7 figures.) (Author). |
