Abanades, Miguel A.; Escribano, Jesus; Botana, Francisco – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2010
This article presents a web-based tool designed to compute certified equations and graphs of geometric loci specified using standard Dynamic Geometry Systems (DGS). Complementing the graphing abilities of the considered DGS, the equations of the loci produced by the application are remotely computed using symbolic algebraic techniques from the…

Lawson, Duncan A.; Carpenter, Sarah L.; Croft, Anthony C. – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2008
As a response to the "Mathematics Problem" many universities introduced mathematics support provision. These additional learning opportunities were invariably in a specific physical location and available at certain times. In order to increase the number and types of students who could access support e-learning resources were made…

Lin, Cheng-Yao – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2008
This study explored the efficacy of web-based instruction in topics in elementary school mathematics in fostering teachers' confidence and competence in using instructional technology, and thereby promoting more positive attitudes toward using computers and Internet resources in the mathematics classroom. The results indicated that students who…

Sangwin, Christopher J.; Naismith, Laura – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2008
We present principles for the design of an online system to support computer algebra enabled questions for use within the teaching and learning of mathematics in higher education. The introduction of a computer algebra system (CAS) into a computer aided assessment (CAA) system affords sophisticated response processing of student provided answers.…
