摘要

摘要

En 中文
This paper introduces a new mode of variational and covariational reasoning, which we call scaling-continuous reasoning. Scaling-continuous reasoning entails (a) imagining a variable taking on all values on the continuum at any scale, (b) understanding that there is no scale at which the continuum becomes discrete, and (c) re-scaling to any arbitrarily small increment for x and coordinating that scaling with associated values for y. Based on the analysis of a 15-h teaching experiment with two 12-year-old pre-algebra students, we present evidence of scaling-continuous reasoning and identify two implications for students' understanding of rates of change: seeing constant rate as an equivalence class of ratios, and viewing instantaneous rate of change as a potential rate. We argue that scaling-continuous reasoning can support a robust understanding of function and rates of change.
