Abstract
Three classifications of abstraction are presented and expanded on: Reductive, Constructive and Contextual. The associated process of Representation is linked to these abstractive processes. A short pilot study is described. It is found that students chose to articulate their abstractive process in a range of ways most familiar to them.
