The current Australian Curriculum mandates that technology be utilised to support students to "investigate, create and communicate mathematical ideas and concepts" (ACARA, 2018). However, research reports suggest that use of digital technologies in Australian primary mathematics often focuses on the lower-order drilling of algorithms and…

This paper explores how four good teachers, who do not have a special interest in technology, meet the challenge of introducing the rapidly developing mathematics analysis software (e.g. spreadsheets, function graphers, symbolic algebra manipulation and dynamic geometry) into their classrooms. These teachers' practice is viewed through the…

Pierce, Robyn; Bardini, Caroline – Australian Senior Mathematics Journal, 2015
Since the 1990s, computer algebra systems (CAS) have been available in Australia as hand-held devices designed for students with the expectation that they will be used in the mathematics classroom. The data discussed in this paper was collected as part of a pilot study that investigated first year university mathematics and statistics students'…

Pierce, Robyn; Ball, Lynda – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2009
Technology is available and accessible in many mathematics classrooms. Adopting technology to support teaching and learning requires teachers to change their teaching practices. This paper reports the responses of a diverse cohort of 92 secondary mathematics teachers who chose to respond to an Australian state-wide survey (Mathematics with…

Peer reviewedStacey, Kaye; Kendal, Margaret; Pierce, Robyn – International Journal of Computer Algebra in Mathematics Education, 2002
Describes the different ways in which two pioneering Australian teachers adapted their teaching to use computer algebra systems (CAS). One teacher used CAS with the primary goal of increasing understanding but restricted student use. The other teacher adopted CAS as an extra technique for solving standard problems, emphasizing time saving routines…

Peer reviewedPierce, Robyn; Stacey, Kaye – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2001
Reports on the responses of students using a computer algebra system (CAS) called DERIVE in an introductory calculus course at undergraduate level. Indicates that the use of this technology was a catalyst for students to use three types of learning strategies: (1) regularly using multiple representations, (2) discussing meaning with peers and…
