Universities are encouraging the implementation of innovative methodologies and teaching strategies to develop an interactive and appealing educational environment where students are the focus of the learning process. In such a personalised learning environment, an increase of the students' engagement and the improvement of the outcomes arise.…

The increasing presence of technologies at school has triggered a vivid debate on the way ICT influences students' learning process. Using PISA 2018 data for 15-year-old students and hierarchical linear models, we find an inverted U-shaped relationship between ICT use at school and students' performance in mathematics in 22 OECD countries. In all…

This study evaluated the effectiveness of faithful use of Imagine Math, a computer adaptive math intervention for elementary students in grades three through five. To achieve this objective, the researcher compared the math achievement growth as measured by the NWEA MAP math assessments from fall 2021 to spring 2022 between the treatment group and…

This study aims to investigate the advantages of implementing multimedia resources in the teaching and learning environment of mathematics and statistics. It examines the use of tablet PCs to create video learning resources. Such practices allow lecturers to provide additional learning support to students via the learning platform Moodle. This…

In this study, it was aimed to reveal the effect of using technology on the students' academic achievement in primary mathematics education. In accordance with this purpose, the current study is to determine the overall effect size by bringing together the experimental studies conducted on the effect on students' academic achievement of using…

This study explored the relationship between educational technology and the mathematics achievement of South African and German students. Hierarchical Linear Models (HLM) showed that the availability of computers at school and using computers in the mathematics classroom in South Africa positively associated with the mathematics achievement of…

Educators must balance the needs of students who start the school year behind grade level with their obligation to teach grade-appropriate content to all students. Educational software could help educators strike this balance by targeting content to students' differing levels of mastery. Using a regression discontinuity design and detailed…

Geometry teaching in elementary schools in Colombia is a challenging task. Students' problems with this topic have led to below-average performances in the Program of International Student Assessment. To face this challenge, this paper presents Akasha, a personalized software application to reinforce geometry teaching to elementary school children…

Over the past decade the ratio of student to computer has decreased rapidly (National Center for Education Statistics, 2008). Technology is constantly evolving; students in today's classrooms are "digital natives" (Prensky, 2005). The United States government has devoted many plans of action through their evolving Office of Educational…

Employing data from TIMSS 2011, this study investigated the association among middle school students' in-class computer use, content learning opportunities, and mathematics and science achievement. 3,398 students and 183 mathematics teachers and 3,989 students and 363 science teachers were included in the study. Structural equation modelling was…

The use of technology in K-12 education is now more widespread than it ever was before the pandemic, and that is the case even though nearly all schools across the country have transitioned back to in-person learning. Record numbers of students now have their own school-issued digital devices, educators have become more critical evaluators of…

Background/Context: Increased interest in the correlates of media devices available to children has led to research indicating that access to and use of technology are positively associated with children's academic achievement. However, the digital divide remains; not all children have access to digital technologies, and not all children can…

The Education system in Germany recently invested five billion euro in digital infrastructure for about 40 000 schools. Therefore, this mixed-method study explored the relationship between integrating educational technology in mathematics education and the mathematics achievement of Grade 4 German students. Descriptive statistics and two-level…

The aim of this research was to examine the effect of GeoGebra-aided REACT strategy on the understanding of geometry concepts and to investigate the interaction between learning strategy and spatial ability on the understanding of geometry concepts. This research involved 60 students of Grade 8 at a private Junior High School in Borong, province…

In his State of the Nation address on 7 February 2019, the president of the Republic of South Africa. Mr. Cyril Ramaphosa, stated that the government would provide digital workbooks and textbooks to every school child in South Africa by 2025. (De Villiers, 2019). This announcement begs the question how effective the incorporation of Information…
