Serpil Yorganci; Murat Subasi – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
While GeoGebra applets have been extensively investigated in learning environments, few studies have addressed the interactive GeoGebra applets in an e-book-based learning environment. This study aims to compare the effects of the e-book created with interactive GeoGebra applets on students' learning achievement and motivation. The sample of the…

Outhwaite, Laura A.; Gulliford, Anthea; Pitchford, Nicola J. – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
When available in multiple languages, educational apps can deliver the same mathematics instruction in the child's first language or different language of instruction. This pilot study examined the feasibility of a maths app intervention compared to standard mathematical practice with 61 children aged 5-6 years attending a bilingual immersion…

Harrison, Taylor R. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2018
To help alleviate the struggle in choosing effective apps to use in the classroom, Taylor Harrison presents a list of qualities supported by research, that teachers can use to discern at a glance whether an app can potentially be an effective learning tool for their students. This list of qualities was produced through an extensive review of…

Harrison, Taylor R.; Lee, Hollylynne S. – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2018
Over the last several years, iPads have become increasingly popular in the classroom. The number of available apps that could be used in the mathematics classroom are countless, but some make better mathematical learning tools than others. This research presents a set of sixteen criteria that can be used to evaluate the potential of an iPad app to…

Tucker, Stephen I.; Johnson, Teri Nicole – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2017
Interactions with technology have become a focus of education research, revealing specific constructs relevant to these interactions. Attributes of users and tools contribute to physically embodied interactions with technology and both users and tools modify attributes throughout these interactions. This study examines patterns of user-tool…

Kadijevich, Djordje; Haapasalo, Lenni; Hvorecky, Jozef – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications: An International Journal of the IMA, 2005
To help mathematics educators realise the power of computer-based applications and modelling, this paper deals with four questions: (a) What implications does technology have for the range of applications and modelling problems that can be introduced? (b) In what cases does technology facilitate the learning of applications and modelling? (c) When…
