Performing hand gestures such as pointing and tracing while learning is an area of increasing focus in educational research. Previous studies have demonstrated that learners who performed these gestures while engaging with static paper- or computer-based learning materials performed better on posttests in multiple learning areas, such as…

Augmented Reality (AR) technologies allow for holograms to be layered over the real-world, "augmenting" human vision by adding technical information or illustrations onto 3D space. Although AR-based applications are showing positive effects in many systematic reviews and meta-analyses, well-designed, rigorous studies with strong control…

This article presents the adaptations for creating a set of Dragon Curve fractals using the Platonic polyhedra. The modeled fractals were inserted into environments programmed with Virtual Reality (VR) resources, which allow the visitor to manipulate and visualize each iteration used to construct these fractals. The structures of HTML page…

Augmented Reality (AR) technologies allow for holograms to be layered over the real-world, "augmenting" human vision by overlaying illustrations onto 3D space. Here we explore the question: What affordances does AR in a collaborative environment have for the future of mathematics education in uncertain times? We conducted a study where…

Digital technologies for mathematics education are continuously developing. Still, much remains unknown about how students use these tools and how this affects learning. For example, tablets nowadays come with multi-touch options that allow for a more embodied approach to geometry education, compared to mouse interactions. However, little is known…

Technology to support collaborative learning has come a long way. Interactive tabletops support collaboration when correctly integrated in activity design. While these devices can now, in principle, be purchased by the general public, wide adoption in schools is hindered by their high cost and lack of mobility. In this paper, we analyze the…

This study investigated the added value of real-time adaptive feedback on seventh graders' performances in tablet-based geometry learning. To isolate the effects of the medium (ie, tablet) from those of the feedback, three groups were compared: paper-and-pencil, pen-based tablet without feedback and pen-based tablet with feedback. The feedback was…
