While traditional graphing calculators have become commonplace in high school mathematics classrooms, newer and more powerful connected graphing packages (CGP) are less pervasive. This study observes how four teachers integrate a CGP into their high school mathematics classrooms, with a focus on the challenges the teachers faced and the…

STEM educators have taken on a new and radically different reality: that students will have access to online tools and online knowledge as they undergo assessment. Students may look up facts that are easily available online, employ online tools and also employ paid services to cheat. The first wave of novel assessment strategies devised in…

With the emergence of new instructional technologies, pre-service teachers are expected to develop Mathematical Technological Knowledge (MTK), which we define as teacher knowledge of technology developed as a result of exploring mathematics with technology. We examined 16 middle grades pre-service mathematics teachers' (PSMTs) MTK within a…

The importance of developing students' mathematical thinking is frequently highlighted in literature regarding the teaching and learning of mathematics. Despite this importance, most curricula and instructional activities for undergraduate mathematics fail to bring the learner beyond the mathematics. The purpose of this study was to enhance…

While 'flipped' classrooms have been heralded as a valuable tool for student learning, little is known about the process by which students learn from the out-of-class resources. This study investigates 12 undergraduate students' sense-making activities while watching videos about topics in introductory statistics. Analysis of interview data…

In this paper, we report a teaching experiment regarding the theory of polynomial approximations at the university mathematics teaching in Sweden. The experiment was designed by applying Variation theory and by using the free dynamic mathematics software GeoGebra. The aim of this study was to investigate if the technology-assisted teaching of…

Flipped learning is gaining traction in K-12 for enhancing students' problem-solving skills at an early age; however, there is relatively little large-scale research showing its effectiveness in promoting better learning outcomes in higher education, especially in mathematics classes. In this study, we examined the data compiled from both…

The aim of this paper is to present and discuss some of the evidence regarding the resources that students use when they establish relationships between a contextual situation and an ordinary differential equation (ODE). We present research results obtained from work by seven students in a graduate level course in mathematics education, where they…

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of dynamic mathematics software on the achievement of pre-service mathematics teachers in the topic of polar coordinates and to solicit their opinions about computer-assisted instruction. The study was conducted for 11 weeks with 33 pre-service teachers in the Department of Mathematics…

This study was carried out to examine the effects of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) using dynamic software on the achievement of students in mathematics in the topic of reflection symmetry. The study also aimed to ascertain the pre-service mathematics teachers' opinions on the use of CAI in mathematics lessons. In the study, a mixed research…
