Direct linkOzgun-Koca, S. Asli; Edwards, Thomas G. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2011
A common activity--having students collect data to measure the radius and circumference of circular objects--can be given a new twist. These data can be viewed virtually using technology. A dynamic geometry environment coupled with the powerful capabilities of a spreadsheet can greatly enhance student learning. The activity in this article…

Soucie, Tanja; Radovic, Nikol; Svedrec, Renata – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2010
Students need to learn how to use technology in a meaningful way to become literate. Teachers should take advantage of technology and what it has to offer. Technology can motivate students and can help them visualize mathematics problems. It can enable them to work on more complex tasks that often involve real-life applications of mathematics. It…

Browning, Christine A.; Garza-Kling, Gina – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2010
Middle school mathematics classrooms are changing. The curriculum has changed as well. Instead of an annual return to previously encountered topics, many middle school students encounter mathematics of a varying nature, characterized in "Principles and Standards for School Mathematics" (NCTM 2000) as the five Content Standards of Number and…
