Abstract:Introducing initial algebraic principles poses a significant challenge, often compounded by the inherent abstract nature of algebra. This article introduces an innovative pedagogical approach that promotes the use of algebra tiles, a didactic manipulative material formed by a collection of geometric pieces symbolizing distinct algebraic monomials. Additionally, this article includes the findings of a quasi-experimental study that applied this inventive teaching method. This research was carried out across two … Show more
