Abstract
- This paper investigates how the selected three East Asian countries--Japan, Korea, and Taiwan-- introduce and develop ideas related to fractions and fraction addition and subtraction compared to the Common Core State Standards of Mathematics and EngageNY. Looking at curricular approaches used across countries can provide a better picture of what is of importance in instruction aimed at developing students' mathematical proficiency. Understanding how the aforementioned three Eastern Asian materials treat fractions will offer both mathematics teachers and teacher educators some concrete images of the visions of the Common Core State Standards of Mathematics and specific ideas on teaching and learning of fractions.
