Background: Robot-math is a term used to describe mathematics instruction centered on engineering, particularly robotics. This type of instruction seeks first to make the mathematics skills useful for robotics-centered challenges, and then to help students extend (transfer) those skills. A robot-math intervention was designed to target the…

There is a body of research around the uptake of digital technologies in secondary schools, and a growing body of research specifically designed to investigate the use of one-to-one laptop programs. However this research focused on the initial uptake of the digital technology or initial implementation of a one-to-one (1:1) laptop policy. Given the…

The main purpose of the work is to present a successful implementation of CLIL method in Mathematics lessons in elementary schools. Nowadays at all types of schools (elementary schools, high schools and universities) all over the world every school subject tends to be taught in a foreign language. In 2003, a document called Action plan for…

Proof is a foundational mathematical activity that has been underrepresented in school mathematics. The recently adopted Common Core State Standards in Mathematics includes eight process standards, several of which promote the inclusion of reasoning and proof across all grades, courses, and students. If students are to reach the expectations…

E-Exercise Bases (EEB) are now used in the teaching of mathematics, especially at university. We discuss here the consequences of their use on the students' activity during computer lab sessions. Results stem from observations of several teaching designs organised in different French universities with three e-exercise bases. The analysis focuses…

Ms. Sharp's case is particularly instructive as it shows how this experienced Yup'ik teacher steeped in the traditions of her culture effectively implemented a culturally based math module. Ms. Sharp's pedagogical creatively allowed her to authentically bring together a core academic content area, math, with Yup'ik traditions, knowledge, and ways…
