Direct linkSmeal, Mary; Walker, Sandra; Carter, Jamye; Simmons-Johnson, Carolyn; Balam, Esenc – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2013
Traditionally, mathematics has been taught using a very direct approach which the teacher explains the procedure to solve a problem and the students use pencil and paper to solve the problem. However, a variety of alternative approaches to mathematics have surfaced from a number of different directions. The purpose of this study was to examine the…

Bouck, Emily – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2010
Calculators are a controversial, yet widely used tool in mathematics education for all students and especially for students with disabilities. However, little research has explored calculators and students with disabilities. This paper explored the influence of calculator type (four-function and graphing) on the mathematical performance of…

Abramovich, Sergei; Brouwer, Peter – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2009
This paper was developed with the goal of enhancing the mathematical preparation of secondary school teachers in the technological paradigm. It shows how two-variable inequalities can be utilized as models for the construction of geometric objects using the software Graphing Calculator 3.5 (produced by Pacific Tech) as a relation grapher. An…

Stylianou, Despina A.; Smith, Beverly; Kaput, James J. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2005
This article reports on results of an exploratory study on undergraduate pre-service teachers' understanding of graphical representations of motion functions. The study described pre-service teachers' explorations using a CBR device. Pre-service teachers' growth was studied in two dimensions: (a) in their learning of the mathematics involved and…

Peer reviewedSimonsen, Linda M.; Dick, Thomas P. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1997
Compiles teachers' impressions of the barriers and/or incentives associated with the use of graphing calculators on classroom dynamics, curriculum and evaluation, training, support, and overall attitude. Concludes that teachers' perceptions of the advantages appeared to be instructionally related, whereas perceptions of the disadvantages appeared…

Negotiating a Technological Shift: Teacher Perception of the Implementation of Graphing Calculators.
Peer reviewedTharp, Marcia L.; Fitzsimmons, James A.; Ayers, Robin L. Brown – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1997
Discusses the results of research which examines the perceptions of teachers as they initially engage in instruction using graphing calculators. Data were collected from 261 math and science teachers of grades 6-12. Participant views changed significantly overall in favor of viewing the graphing calculator as a thinking tool to enhance conceptual…
