Zehavit Kohen; Liron Schwartz-Aviad; Tomer Peleg – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
This study examines a Technology, Pedagogy, Content Knowledge (TPACK) training framework for pre- and in-service mathematics teachers that enables them to experience inquiry-based learning as learners in a dynamic geometry environment that serves as a mathematics laboratory. We investigate the effect of this experience on the teachers' TPACK,…
