Christos Chytas; Sylvia Patricia van Borkulo; Paul Drijvers; Erik Barendsen; Jos L. J. Tolboom – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2024
Nowadays, mathematics teachers in K-12 strive to promote their students' mathematical knowledge and computational thinking (CT) skills. There is an increasing need for effective CT-embedded mathematics learning material and a better understanding of students' views toward them. In this work, we present the results of a research study, which…

Hewitt, Dave – Mathematics Teaching Incorporating Micromath, 2008
In this article, the author describes a lesson he observed involving a function machine. This function machine was a box with a slot at the top of one side and a large cut-out hole at the bottom of the opposite side. A card with a number written on it (the input) was pushed into the slot and the teacher put their hand through the hole of the other…
