Nichols-Paez, Isaac; Brady, Corey – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2019
Generative activities have been shown to support students to engage in space-creating play and exercise their conceptual agency to generate a mathematical space (e.g. Stroup et al. 2004), yet these studies implement generative activities only with their resonating counterpart, classroom networks, technological infrastructures that connect…

AEL, 2004
Grid computing allows large groups of computers (either in a lab, or remote and connected only by the Internet) to extend extra processing power to each individual computer to work on components of a complex request. Grid middleware, recognizing priorities set by systems administrators, allows the grid to identify and use this power without…

White, Tobin – International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2006
This study explores the potential of networked handheld computers to support collaborative problem solving in small groups. Drawing on data from a middle school mathematics classroom equipped with a wireless handheld network, I argue that the sharing of mathematical objects through interactive devices broadens the "bandwidth" of classroom…
