High school math projects center on solving real-world examples in a wide variety of situations that require a creative skill set. Creativity in high school mathematics takes place in a subtle form. In contrast, creativity presents itself conspicuously in art. Therefore, this paper will explore the utilization of polynomial equations in drawing…

This study employed the design-based research (DBR) methodology to explore how to design instructional prompts integrated into a computer-based cognitive tool, GeoGebra, for gifted mathematics education. This study was divided into two iterative research phases lasting for 3 semesters, in which differentiating the instructional prompts for gifted…

In Victoria, Australia, senior secondary mathematics students are expected to use technology and thus need to make decisions about using pen-and-paper (P&P) or technology when solving mathematics problems. The predominant technology is a Computer Algebra System (CAS). This study investigated the beliefs about CAS held by twelve Year 11…

Vectors have important applications both within and outside mathematics, but the concept of vectors is often taught to students in a less-than-engaging way, leading to students feeling inadequate and frustrated. This article describes the use of a mathematical microworld, "Driving with Vectors," to explore vectors using equitable…

Undeniably omnipresent in our everyday lives, electronic signal compression is a classical example that illustrates the ubiquity of mathematics in high-end technology and sciences. When dealing with piles of files, it is essential that each file takes up as little storage space as possible while maintaining quality. The cloud-based--available…

This article aims to analyze the process of the progressive mathematization of the concept of the function by secondary school students through the resolution of a free fall situation. A free-fall mathematical situation was designed and experimented using the Tracker software to obtain movement data. Worksheets and conversations were collected…

This paper discusses two "GeoGebra" applets, "Radical" and "Parabola," that are designed to strengthen the conceptual understanding of specific topics in algebra. The design and pedagogical basis of the applets are presented. The integration of the applets in teaching Grade 9 mathematics in a partner high school in…

This study explores the effectiveness of GeoGebra in enhancing students' understanding of vectors in mathematics education. The research compares traditional teaching methods with the application of GeoGebra to determine its impact on conceptual and procedural knowledge acquisition. Vectors are often challenging for students to grasp due to their…

The most influential books on geometry are those of Euclid called "Elements". In our century, in addition to classical learning, various interactive software are used in teaching geometry. Among them, we can mention GeoGebra. GeoGebra is an interactive math measurement program that consists of teaching and learning from elementary to…

The home confinement that was imposed to reduce and control the spread of COVID-19 pandemic led educational systems to implement changes in many school activities. Teachers moved to remote teaching and relied on digital apps to present and discuss learning activities with their students. Likewise, they looked for new routes and means to follow up…

This study investigated the effect a computer intervention program has on student proficiency in the Algebra 1 End of Course (EOC) examination. This study utilized the intervention math program IXL Math, a computerized program that targets individual students' skill practice and supports students' need to accelerate mastery of Algebra 1 skills in…

We report the results of a study on informal covariate statistical reasoning conducted with 22 students (aged 16 and 18 years). We designed and implemented a task in a digital technology environment to introduce the line of best fit. The task design having elements that foresee misconceptions reported in the literature, and by focusing on four…

The ways teachers converse about their work in relation to information and communications technologies (ICTs) are worth studying. We analyse how a teacher converses about her local practices in relation to two spreadsheet algebra programs (SAPs) on variables. During the conversations we noticed that the teacher keeps different policy documents --…

The purpose of this study was to analyze how the systematic use of GeoGebra influences the ways of reasoning of high school students when they incorporate it in the resolution of word problems. The study was carried out with a group of 20 students who were studying Mathematics I. The results show that the students appropriated resources from the…

A discussion forum is a valuable tool to support student learning in online contexts. However, interactions in online discussion forums are sparse, leading to other issues such as low engagement and dropping out. Recent educational studies have examined the affordances of conversational agents (CA) powered by artificial intelligence (AI) to…
