Gliksman, Yarden; Berebbi, Shir; Hershman, Ronen; Henik, Avishai – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
Math fluency (MF) is the ability to quickly and accurately solve simple math exercises. Proficiency in MF is one of the buildings of arithmetic achievement during school. However, so far only paper and pencil tests have been used to assess MF. In the current study, we present the BGU-MF (Ben-Gurion University Math Fluency) test, a new computerized…

Gamliel, Eyal; Davidovitz, Liema – Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education, 2005
Using an experimental mixed design, this study compared the traditional paper-and-pencil method for evaluating teaching with the online method. Replicating previous findings, the comparison revealed similar evaluation means of the two methods. However, the stability of teaching evaluations using paper-and-pencil twice was substantially higher than…

Dana-Picard, Thierry – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2005
A mathematician's work consists of proving theorems, calculating, and making mathematics understandable. An assistant for all three components is a Computer Algebra System. We describe and discuss various CAS-assisted processes for proving theorems, and discuss the constraints which can appear regarding efficiency, confidence in the result and…
