Ella Puman; Aljona Kritsevskaja – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2024
In this paper, we describe an idea for mathematics lectures that involves using digital tools for first-year university students. Materials in the Moodle course include live broadcasts, lecture recordings, Moodle tests, sample solutions and videos. The aim of the paper is to find out from students' feedback which digital tools help them understand…

Croucher, John S.; Hon, Stephnie – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2022
The onset of COVID-19, along with its various mutations, has played havoc with many activities, not the least of which is education. For the majority of 2020 and 2021 in Australia, much of the teaching in both schools and universities was undertaken online, leading to a re-think of how learning and teaching might look in the future. This paper…

Lawson, Duncan A.; Carpenter, Sarah L.; Croft, Anthony C. – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2008
As a response to the "Mathematics Problem" many universities introduced mathematics support provision. These additional learning opportunities were invariably in a specific physical location and available at certain times. In order to increase the number and types of students who could access support e-learning resources were made…

Affouf, Mahmoud; Walsh, Thomas P. – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2007
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of web-based homework (WBH) assignments on the overall comprehension measured by the final examination in a first year college algebra course. This study included 1653 students over a three year period. Results indicate a strong correlation between achievement on the WBH assignments…

Papadopoulos, Ioannis; Dagdilelis, Vassilios – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2006
In this paper, difficulties of students in the case of computer-mediated teaching of geometry in a traditional classroom are considered within the framework of "transactional distance", a concept well known in distance education. The main interest of this paper is to record and describe in detail the different forms of…
