Student Perspectives of Web-Based Mathematics
Loong, Esther Yook-Kin; Herbert, Sandra
International Journal of Educational Research, v53 p117-126 2012
This paper presents the results of a survey conducted with students (N = 97) whose teachers have used the Web in their mathematics classes. Their responses to the use of the Internet for learning mathematics are reported here. Factor analyses were used to determine the constructs that underlie the survey. These constructs were found to be "Valuation of the Internet as a tool for learning mathematics" and "Emotive response to the Internet". Possible reasons were given for students' responses in these constructs. Interview findings were used to support and lend insight into the results. (Contains 7 tables.)
