Responsive teaching is an effective teaching approach in which teachers engage and respond to students' mathematical ideas to support their mathematics learning. In this study, the relationship between preservice teachers' (PSTs) noticing expertise and their teaching moves was investigated in a simulated AI chatbot environment. The AI chatbot…

This article presents an extension of the well-known TPACK model to describe the professional digital competencies of mathematics teachers. The extension leads to what we want to call MPC-model (Media-Pedagogy-Content) in the following. It additionally includes (1) the consideration of competencies instead of knowledge for a holistic description,…

Prisms VR, a secondary math learning application, allows for users to see, manipulate, and engage with mathematical concepts in an embodied way in Virtual Reality (VR) environment. We examine cases in which mathematics teachers and middle school students worked through Prisms and reflected upon their experiences. Findings indicate that VR…

Group discussions during mathematics lessons provide important opportunities for students to deeply engage with mathematics content and to develop communication skills and strong understanding aligned with college and career readiness objectives (Walshaw & Anthony, 2008). However, such student-centered discussions are less common than…

U.S. mathematics teachers face considerable pressures to keep up with pacing guides and to prepare students for standardized tests. At the same time, they are called upon to engage students in innovative exploratory activities and to incorporate new technologies into their lessons. These competing priorities pose considerable challenges. Against…

In this paper we analyse the role of the teacher in a Digital interactive Storytelling in Mathematics (DiST-M) activity. involved in the story as a character (the Guru, a math expert), the teacher acts as a mediator in students' problem-solving process. We analyse how the teacher may orchestrate the mathematical discussions to allow students…

The role of manipulative materials in mathematics can be a contentious one. It seems that in the mind of some teachers, manipulatives are fine in the early years but have no place in a rigorous maths classroom as the students get older. It is a topic worth our consideration.

The purpose of this study is to investigate pre-service middle-level mathematics teachers' noticing of student mathematical thinking and teacher identity in the context of virtual professional experimentation performed through the Story"Circles" model. This study examined how pre-service middle-level mathematics teachers' education…

The aim of this study is to investigate how an augmented reality mobile math trails program can provide opportunities for students to engage in meaningful mathematical modelling activities. An explorative research design was conducted involving two mathematics teachers and 30 eight grades in Semarang, Indonesia. An Augmented Reality Mobile Math…

Mathematics teachers are increasingly encouraged to incorporate computer-based technology in their classrooms, but these tools require strategic use in order to provide any substantive improvement to student understanding. This paper reports on how three middle-school mathematics teachers leveraged one particular tool, PhET interactive simulations…

This paper addresses the integrated use of the arts and digital technology in mathematics education--specifically involving aspects of preservice teachers' mathematical activity while engaging in music production, in pedagogic scenarios conceived of as aesthetic mathematical experiences (AMEs). Theoretically, the research evokes notions such as…

The correct use of visual perspective is one of the main reasons that virtual reality environments and realistic works of art look lifelike. Geometric construction techniques used by artists to achieve an accurate perspective effect were developed during the Renaissance. With the rise of computer graphics, translating the geometric ideas of 600…

High-tech tools can be integrated to serve a number of purposes in the mathematics classroom, with different purposes being appropriate for different learning goals. We focus specifically on the various purposes for interactive simulations (sims). This study followed three experienced middle-school mathematics teachers integrating PhET sims into…

From random interviews of mathematics teachers, the researchers are conscious that students have difficulties in solving problems regarding compound body volume measurement. The researchers found the main factor involved in the difficulties was incomplete spatial concepts. Augmented reality (AR), which is a kind of educational technology, has been…

Mathematics teachers, researchers and specialists in educational technology from Quebec, Canada developed virtual tools that make interactive simulations of games of chance. These tools were presented to a group of teachers from New Brunswick through workshops and they then got to test and validate them with their students. Semi-structured…
