Alejandra, Almirón; Fernando, Bifano; Leonardo, Lupinacci – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2015
Solving systems of equations at school, at least in Argentina, is usually a task that students are given as a series of techniques that "allow" them to find a solution. How to overcome educational obstacles that are generated from a fragmented approach of knowledge? What can DGS do, in particular the CAS environment? What epistemic and…

Tonisson, Eno; Lepp, Marina – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2015
The answers offered by computer algebra systems (CAS) can sometimes differ from those expected by the students or teachers. The comparison of the students' answers and CAS answers could provide ground for discussion about equivalence and correctness. Investigating the students' comparison of the answers gives the possibility to study different…

Palmér, Hanna – International Journal of Early Years Education, 2015
The results in this article explore whether and how the design of applications used on tablet computers influences the interaction and dialogues that occur between children and pedagogues, the participation of children in the activities and the mathematics that can be learned. While mathematics offered a lens to explore the use of tablet devices,…

Daccord, Tom; Reich, Justin – Educational Leadership, 2015
Without a change in our technology integration strategies, there's no reason to expect that a new device will magically create new teaching practices. In some iPad classrooms, students are engaged in truly innovative work. On the whole, however, tablets are most often used to reproduce existing practices. To make the most of their investment in…

Howard, Sarah K.; Chan, Amy; Caputi, Peter – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2015
The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship of subject areas to teachers' technology integration. Educational technology research has often identified "culture clashes" to explain differences in technology use between subject areas. These clashes are frequently attributed to core features, values and beliefs held in the…

Chang, Yu-Lien; Hou, Huei-Tse; Pan, Chao-Yang; Sung, Yao-Ting; Chang, Kuo-En – Educational Technology & Society, 2015
Based on the sense of place theory and the design principles of guidance and interpretation, this study developed an augmented reality mobile guidance system that used a historical geo-context-embedded visiting strategy. This tool for heritage guidance and educational activities enhanced visitor sense of place. This study consisted of 3 visitor…

Ash, Barbara Lee – Journal of Applied Research for Business Instruction, 2015
Engaging "digital natives" presents challenges and opportunities for both the classroom teacher and for trainers in the workplace, many of whom are "digital immigrants." The learning styles, interests, values, and the Millennial learner's unique alignment with technology present opportunities to engage this generation in new…

Mascia, Maria Lidia; Agus, Mirian; Fastame, Maria Chiara; Penna, Maria Pietronilla; Sale, Eliana; Pessa, Eliano – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2015
The development of numerical abilities was examined in three groups of 5 year-olds: one including 13 children accomplishing a numerical training in pencil-and-paper format (EG1); another group including 21 children accomplished a homologous training in computerized format; the remaining 24 children were assigned to the control group (CG). The…

Cameron, Scott; Ball, Lynda – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2015
This paper reports on a study of choices about the use of a computer algebra system (CAS) or pen-and-paper (p&p) by a class of seven Year 11 Mathematical Methods (CAS) students as they completed a calculus worksheet. Factors that influenced students' choices are highlighted by comparing and contrasting the use of CAS and p&p between…

Ghoneim, Nahed Mohamed Mahmoud; Elghotmy, Heba Elsayed Abdelsalam – Online Submission, 2015
The current study aims to investigate the effect of Wikifolios on developing EFL writing skills of secondary stage students. Forty first year secondary students were randomly divided into two groups: experimental (n=20) and control (n=20). The experimental group used Wikifolios assessment in EFL writing while the control group underwent regular…

Gullen, Kristine; Zimmerman, Holly – Educational Leadership, 2013
In order to help teachers envision digital products in action in classrooms, the authors look at three examples of how teachers they know enhance learning time by employing technology efficiently. The examples include: (1) a social studies teacher who begins each class period with a three-question formative assessment using the website…
