“…At times , students are completely oblivious of any meaning that was intended for the symbols while at other times they, may know that meaning exists, but inadequate understanding will prevent them from assigning meaning to the symbols, or they may give erroneous meaning to the symbols (Howie, 2004). For example, as students study topics such as functions and graphs, they begin to understand and interpret one set of algebraic objects in terms of another (e.g., a function equation with its graph, a data set by its equation, a data set by its graph, Kaplan et al (2009) find that students are generally able to plot points and equations; however, in spite of this procedural fluency, students lack the ability to extract meaning from graphical representations whereas both the procedural and graphical representation must go hand in hand.…”
