Uses Of Technology In Upper Secondary Mathematics Education

by Colette Laborde, Corey Brady, Hans-Stefan Siller, Jana Trgalova, Luis Moreno-Armella, Michal Tabach, Sara Dalton e Stephen Hegedus

3,96€ + 10% CARD

 This survey addresses the use of technology in upper secondary mathematics education from four points of view: theoretical analysis of epistemological and cognitive aspects of activity in new technology mediated learning environments, the changes brought by technology in the interactions between environment, students and teachers, the interrelations between mathematical activities and technology, skills and competencies that must be developed in teacher education. Research shows that the use of some technologies may deeply change the solving processes and contribute to impact the learning processes. The questions are which technologies to choose for which purposes, and how to integrate them, so as to maximize all students’ agency. In particular the role of the teacher in classrooms and the content of teacher education programs are critical for taking full advantage of technology in teaching practice.

3,96€ + 10% CARD

 This topical survey provides an overview of the current state of the art in technology use in mathematics education, including both practice-oriented experiences and research-based evidence, as seen from an international perspective. Three core themes are discussed: Evidence of effectiveness; Digital assessment; and Communication and collaboration.The survey’s final section offers suggestions for future trends in technology-rich mathematics education and provides a research agenda reflecting those trends. Predicting what lower secondary mathematics education might look like in 2025 with respect to the role of digital tools in curricula, teaching and learning, it examines the question of how teachers can integrate physical and virtual experiences to promote a deeper understanding of mathematics. The issues and findings presented here provide an overview of current research and offer a glimpse into a potential future characterized by the effective integration of technology to support mathematics teaching and learning at the lower secondary level.

First, the purposes, traditions and principles ofassessment are considered, with particular attention to those common to all levelsof assessment and those more connected with either classroom or large-scaleassessment. Assessment design based on sound assessment principles is discussed,differentiating between large-scale and classroom assessment, but alsoexamining how the design principles overlap. The focus then shifts to classroomassessment and provides specific examples of assessment strategies, beforeexamining the impact of large-scale assessment on curriculum, policy, instruction,and classroom assessment. The book concludes by discussing the challenges thatteachers currently face, as well as ways to support them. The book offers a common languagefor researchers in assessment, as well as a primer for those interested inunderstanding current work in the area of assessment.
