Digital Technology in Mathematics Education : Why It Works ( or Doesn ' T )
نویسنده
چکیده
The integration of digital technology confronts teachers, educators and researchers with many questions. What is the potential of ICT for learning and teaching, and which factors are decisive in making it work in the mathematics classroom? To investigate these questions, six cases from leading studies in the field are described, and decisive success factors are identified. This leads to the conclusion that crucial factors for the success of digital technology in mathematics education include the design of the digital tool and corresponding tasks exploiting the tool’s pedagogical potential, the role of the teacher and the educational context.

متن کاملWhat can digital technologies take from and bring to research in mathematics education ?
Preface There are many reasons to write a chapter of a research handbook; among these are a recognition of recent developments, the need to summarise a field of research, and the importance of providing a ready source of bibliographic references. It is also a chance for the authors to give their particular view of a given area, ride their particularly hobby-horse, or simply focus on what seems ...
