The Fractions drawer was designed and written by Dr Jennifer Way and reflects a long history of research and development in effective use of technologies in mathematics education. The content of the drawer is supported by the extensive research into the learning of fractions carried out by several groups of researchers across Australia, some of which was published in a book edited by Dr Jennifer Way and A/Prof. Janette Bobis from The University of Sydney, titled Fractions: Teaching for Understanding (2011, AAMT).
