Tran-Duong, Quoc Hoa – International Journal of Instruction, 2021
The programmed instruction helps each student gain knowledge with different time or sequences, depending on available knowledge, ability, and learning speed. With this method, students can perform self-evaluation and self-regulation in learning activities. This article presents the application of the programmed instruction method in designing the…

Hwang, Wu-Yuin; Utami, Ika Qutsiati; Purba, Siska Wati Dewi; Chen, Holly S. L. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
This paper aimed to investigate the effect of a mobile app on mathematics learning in authentic contexts. Authentic contexts contain rich resources wherein students can use authentic objects as aid in advanced educational technology-assisted mathematics learning. We designed Ubiquitous-Fraction (U-Fraction), a mobile application that helps…

Disbudak, Ozge; Akyuz, Didem – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2019
Concrete manipulatives and dynamic geometry software (DGS) are both commonly used for geometry education in elementary and middle schools. This study sets out to understand which of the two approaches was better in improving the conceptual understanding of quadrilaterals for fifth graders. A pre-/post-test design was conducted in which the same…

Dimiceli, Vincent E.; Lang, Andrew S. I. D.; Locke, LeighAnne – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2010
This article describes the benefits and drawbacks of using Wolfram|Alpha as the platform for teaching calculus concepts in the lab setting. It is a result of our experiences designing and creating an entirely new set of labs using Wolfram|Alpha. We present the reasoning behind our transition from using a standard computer algebra system (CAS) to…

Feurzeig, Wallace; Papert, Seymour A. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2011
Formal mathematical methods remain, for most high school students, mysterious, artificial and not a part of their regular intuitive thinking. The authors develop some themes that could lead to a radically new approach. According to this thesis, the teaching of programming languages as a regular part of academic progress can contribute effectively…

Choi-Koh, Sang Sook – International Journal of Instructional Media, 2000
Discusses mathematics education in Korea, describes problems with computer software for math, and introduces a problem-solving model using the computer as a tool. Discusses visualization, problem solving, and examines how effectively the model integrates mathematics instruction of problem solving into a regular math program of quadratic minimum…

Rieber, Lloyd P. – 1983
This study investigated the effectiveness of LOGO's turtle graphics in both providing a model of systematic thought and in teaching simple geometry to young children in the second grade. The treatment given to 25 second grade students in the experimental group consisted of programming with LOGO's turtle graphics using four Apple II+…

Funkhouser, Charles; Dennis, J. Richard – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1992
Pretests measuring problem-solving ability were administered to 71 students in a high school mathematics class. One group was given computer-augmented instruction; the other group was given instruction augmented by mathematics laboratory activities. Posttest results for problem-solving ability were mixed, but the group receiving computer-augmented…
