The present study aims to explore the effect of using dynamic mathematics software in a distance education environment on students' understanding of trigonometric functions. The sample of the study consists of 45 first-year students enrolled in two associate degree programs of a state university. In the research, the lessons in the experimental…

This study explores the effectiveness of the GeoGebra on Grade 12 students' success in making associations between the representations of trigonometric functions and the interpretation of graphs. A technology-oriented classroom is a commanding and accommodating tool in mathematics instruction in understanding mathematical concepts. A…

Almost 70% of college students in California are required to take at least one remedial education course in mathematics or English, and of those students, only 40% continue to succeed in their educational goals of transfer or receiving a degree ("Student Success Scorecard," n.d.). Corequisite support remediation is an alternative to…

An extensive body of research describes the stark social and academic disparities that characterize large, comprehensive public high schools. Advocates have argued that smaller high schools, with their necessarily more constrained curricula, have the potential to improve student academic outcomes and their equitable distribution. Using propensity…

Computer and information technologies have brought revolutions to many aspects of our lives. Online learning is one of the new learning methods that have emerged with the development of new technologies. Even though the advantages of online learning are very attractive to students and educators, when they are applied in real educational settings,…
