The aim of this study was to examine the effect of using computers during mathematics lessons on the academic achievements of 4th-grade students. Additionally,this study aimed to determine the frequency of computer usage in selected countries. TIMSS 2019 4th-grade mathematics data were used in this study to determine the relationship between…

In Victoria, Australia, senior secondary mathematics students are expected to use technology and thus need to make decisions about using pen-and-paper (P&P) or technology when solving mathematics problems. The predominant technology is a Computer Algebra System (CAS). This study investigated the beliefs about CAS held by twelve Year 11…

This paper reports changes in the extent to which a group of Year 11 students used a Computer Algebra System (CAS), pen-and-paper (P&P), or a combination of both, when solving routine problems across seven months in four different topics. Comparing the frequency of CAS use across topics shows students made greater use of CAS in the topics of…

This study aimed to examine the methodological trends of studies using the Augmented Reality (AR) technology in mathematics education and reveal basic findings obtained from the studies. In this context, a systematic review process was conducted in the Web of Science database and 86 studies obtained as a consequence were reviewed. In this…

In this paper the authors described the influence of the computer-based environment on students' learning achievement of the multidimensional calculus, in particular double integrals. The research was conducted with the second year students at the University of Kragujevac, Serbia, with two groups of students: the experimental and the control one.…

Taking as its point of departure, situations arising in classrooms exposed to a heavy use of CAS, exemplified by the Danish upper secondary school mathematics program, the paper discusses the use of "old" cognitive frameworks of mathematics education as an alternative to more recent theoretical developments in the field. The paper draws…

Mathematical modelling is acknowledged to be one of the major dimensions of mathematical competence, and well-designed modelling activities can provide students with the opportunity to use mathematical concepts and procedures in a meaningful way. Additionally, modelling activities are regarded as suitable contexts for enabling students to use…

Inspired by the entering of computer algebra systems (CAS) in the Danish upper secondary school mathematics program, this article addresses, from a theoretical stance, what may happen when traditional procedures are outsourced to CAS. Looking at the commands "solve" and "desolve," it is asked what happens when such CAS…

This experience has taken place at the School of Education of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. The goals of the subjects considered are to show how the computer can help in the teaching-learning process in Primary and/or Secondary Education and to clarify and strengthen the mathematical concepts of our students. Mastering a specific…

The purpose of this study was to determine the differences between preservice teachers' 21st century techno-pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK-21). The study group included 254 preservice teachers from the departments of Science Teaching and Mathematics Teaching at a state university in Turkey. In order to determine the preservice teachers'…

This paper reports on a case study of two elementary school students with mathematical learning disabilities (MLD) (ages 10 and 11) using augmented reality (AR), digital and physical modelling in mathematics class. MLD students worked on modelling geometric shapes (cubes, cuboids, squared pyramids, and octahedrons) and forms (polygons) by…

The integration of ICT in formal teaching and learning environments has become more and more relevant along the last decades. However, its use in the mathematics classroom seems to be still far from initial expectations. This paper shows the results from a research conducted to get some insight about such a gap by analyzing the relationship…

In Costa Rica, before 2016 the subject of statistics was not included in the national high school tests in Mathematics. As of 2016, the test, consisting of 60 items, includes 9 statistical items. On the other hand, teachers in their lessons usually use traditional expository methods, mediated by the use of a blackboard and printed materials. In…

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 paper is propositional and is based on research findings which suggest that success in mathematics teaching and reform is contingent upon having key personnel in schools to lead curriculum reform. Based on the outcomes of a large national study on successful practice in the teaching of numeracy for some of Australia's most…
