Understanding fraction operations: The case of fraction division

Résumé

This qualitative and interpretative study aims to identify grade 5 students’ understanding of fraction division as a result of a teaching experiment based on the use of models and their knowledge at the end of the experiment. Data was gathered using four students’ work on classroom tasks, an individual test and individual interviews. During the teaching experiment, students demonstrated not knowing a division operation as a measure. In the final test, they demonstrated to conceptually understand this meaning of division, associating the common denominator algorithm with the modelling process, and demonstrating operation sense.
