Thierry Noah Dana-Picard; Sara Hershkovitz – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2023
Relying on the students' cultural background to teach mathematics may be a strong incitement for the learning process. This background can include artistic creations, items from the news, among others. Because of the strong presence of space related news (in particular the almost simultaneous launching of three spacecrafts towards Mars), we…

Weissman, Shula; Stupel, Moshe – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2021
We present an investigative activity that was set as part of a course of pre-service teachers of mathematics. The emphasis in the course was set on the importance of using the computerized technological tool for teaching the subject. The activity focused on investigating interesting geometrical conservation properties which are not known to the…

Hašek, Roman; Zahradník, Jan – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2015
The use of the dynamic mathematics software GeoGebra to solve geometric problems on conics and loci from an 18th century textbook will be presented. In particular, examples will be shown of how the use of this program helped the authors to understand the method that our predecessors used to deal with conic sections together with solving loci…

Miyazaki, Mikio; Kimiho, Chino; Katoh, Ryuhei; Arai, Hitoshi; Ogihara, Fumihiro; Oguchi, Yuichi; Morozumi, Tatsuo; Kon, Mayuko; Komatsu, Kotaro – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2012
Three-dimensional dynamic geometry software has the power to enhance students' learning of spatial geometry. The purpose of this research is to clarify what potential using three-dimensional dynamic geometry software can offer us in terms of how to develop the spatial geometry curriculum in lower secondary schools. By focusing on the impacts the…
