Salani, End – European Journal of Educational Research, 2013
Lesson starts are transitional events which may cause management problems for teachers. This study sought junior secondary school mathematics teachers' beliefs about calculator use in mathematics instruction in Botswana and was descriptive in nature adopting a survey design. The sample of seventeen (17) mathematics teachers from four (4) junior…

Tan, Hazel – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2012
In this paper, the relationships between students' beliefs about knowing and learning mathematics, and how they engage with calculators, are investigated. An online survey was conducted for 964 Singaporean and 176 Victorian senior secondary students. Students' "connected knowing-deep approach" conception of mathematics was found to be…

In 2009, four mathematics subjects were offered at the year 12 level in the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE). The two subjects at the intermediate level--Mathematical Methods and Mathematical Methods CAS--run in parallel, that is, a student can be enrolled in only one or the other, the choice being made at the school level. The curricular…

Wu, Margaret – OECD Publishing (NJ1), 2010
This paper makes an in-depth comparison of the PISA (OECD) and TIMSS (IEA) mathematics assessments conducted in 2003. First, a comparison of survey methodologies is presented, followed by an examination of the mathematics frameworks in the two studies. The methodologies and the frameworks in the two studies form the basis for providing…

Forgasz, Helen J.; Griffith, Shirly – Australian Senior Mathematics Journal, 2006
In this paper we present findings from two studies focusing on computer algebra system (CAS) calculators. In Victoria, Australia, it is currently mandatory for students to use graphics calculators in some grade 12 mathematics examinations. Since 2001, a pilot study has been conducted involving Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) students…
