A couple of questions from an ignorant person of these matters
(having only
had a typical physics graduate education). What is Lawson's "Classroom
test
of Scientific Thinking"? and how can one get a copy?
Also, how are the Benezet methods mentioned (also what are they exactly?)
similar to, related to, some of the Waldorff school methods for grades 1-7
mathematics teaching?

Only 1/4 of my regular physics students
understand ratio and proportion on Lawson's "Classroom test
of Scientific
Thinking". They will put the data points on a graph at evenly spaced
intervals to produce a straight line, and then adjust the
scale so that it
is unevenly spaced.
