The aim of the study informing this paper was to investigate pre-service teachers' (PSTs') approaches to task design, posing the research question: How do pre-service teachers respond when they are asked to design an exploratory task using GeoGebra for 8th grade students? The research study and this paper focus on the PSTs' design stories rather…

The purpose of this study was twofold. Firstly, to extend the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to assess secondary mathematics school teachers' intention to use Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) in geometry teaching and, second, to examine the relations between the parameters of TAM and the role of external variables. We extended TAM by integrating…

In the modern era where technology usage is a tradition of the generation, integrating the teaching and learning with mediums that could catch up and satisfy pupils' interest is noteworthy. In line with this, the contributions of GeoGebra in the teaching-learning of mathematics: as a tool to foster students' interest and achievement, and as an…

The study was conducted to investigate the relation of adolescent students' mathematics motivation and achievement to their appropriate help-seeking and inappropriate guessing behaviour while using instructional software. High school students (n = 90) completed brief assessments of mathematics motivation and then worked with software for geometry…

Relates one secondary geometry teacher's experiences learning and using the computer program "Geometer's Sketchpad." The article describes the program and provides examples of ways this teacher uses it in combination with more traditional teaching tools. (SM)
