Factual, Contextual and Symbolic Generalizations in Algebra

Description: 
The purpose of this paper is to investigate, from a socio-cultural semiotic perspective, novice students’ pre-symbolic and symbolic types of generalization of patterns. The investigation is carried out in terms of the semiotic (linguistic and non linguistic) means of objectification that Grade 8 students display in the attainment of the goals of generalizing mathematical tasks.
