We focus on the integration of STACK--a Computer-Aided Assessment (CAA) technology--in the mathematics department of a high-ranking University in the United Kingdom. We study a department-wide project where instructors were expected to implement STACK into continuous assessment tasks for (nearly) all core modules across the first two years of…

Access to maker technologies has catalyzed and amplified the possibilities for creating physical materials that are responsive to the needs of students. Opportunities for design and fabrication of original mathematics manipulatives have been incorporated into the teacher education program at Montclair State University. Participating preservice…

This study addresses teachers' activity when working with digital technologies (DT) in their classrooms. We build upon a model that considers teaching as managing "open dynamic situations." Within the model, teachers' activity is viewed as diagnosing students' mathematical activity, managing uncertainties due to the characteristics of…

This paper reports some results of a study on how Colombian primary-school teachers, experienced in the use of technological tools, integrate digital resources into their practice. Specifically, we investigate the processes of selection and integration (including appropriation and orchestration) of these resources in the teaching of geometry. We…

The paper addresses concept formation processes of students in the field of geometry. More precisely, the paper deals with the questions of what knowledge do students activate about triangles in different contexts with different (digital) tools and furthermore what content-related meaning do they give to the concept of triangles? Methodologically,…

As teachers plan for instruction, technology integration is an important factor in the planning and implementation process. This has become imperative in a virtual learning environment for instructors to be competent (Gregory & Lodge, 2015). Problems exist with integrating technology that aligns with teaching and learning in content areas.…

This study investigates associations between mathematics pedagogy and teachers' integration of Information Communication Technologies (ICT). As an early adopter of presentation-oriented hardware and software in mathematics classrooms, England represents a critical case for investigating associations between mathematics pedagogy and teachers'…

in this paper we focus on the link between the use of dynamic geometry software and student understanding for the solution of systems of linear equations from an instrumental genesis perspective. Three task-based interviews were conducted with an undergraduate linear algebra student majoring in mathematics education and proficient in using dynamic…

Incorporating video case study of mathematics teaching into professional development (PD) can provide opportunities for teachers to develop new ways of seeing teaching and learning and inform efforts to enact new instructional practices. However, more research is needed to understand how such PD can foster sustained teacher learning about…

Bramlett and Drake (2013) suggest that the ability of teachers to teach proof is crucial for students to learn and develop formal and informal proofs. Teachers need to be involved in the process of proving and have a firm understanding of the critical role of proofs in order to effectively engage their students in proving activities. It is…

Research shows that teachers are one of the most influential factors in student learning in online classrooms during the COVID-19 pandemic and discusses teachers' efforts to get the most out of their online classrooms with their students. However, how the teachers experience online teaching is understudied. To address this concern, this case study…

Mathematics teachers at all levels are expected ever more frequently to integrate use of emergent technologies (e.g., calculators, software, online tools, device applets) in mathematics teaching and learning. Too often technology is used for technology's sake, rather than in intentional ways to support mathematical reasoning, sense-making, and…

This case study investigates the impact of the integration of information and communications technology (ICT) in mathematics visualization skills and initial teacher education programmes. It reports on the influence GeoGebra dynamic software use has on promoting mathematical learning at secondary school and on its impact on teachers' conceptions…

Collaborative work in small groups is often a suitable context for yielding substantial individual learning outcomes. Indeed, small-group collaboration has recently become an educational goal rather than a means. Yet, this goal is difficult to attain, and students must be taught how to learn together. In this paper, we focus on how to prepare…

In this paper, we report on a case study that focused on innovative uses of CAS technology in university mathematics teaching and assessment. The study involved a site visit to the University of Alberta campus (June 2015) during which: interviews were conducted with five mathematics faculty members and seven mathematics students; math lectures…
