- Title
Teacher Integration of Technology into Mathematics Learning.
- Authors
Thomas, Michael O. J.; Ye Yoon Hong
- Abstract
Graphic calculators (GC) have been widely used in teaching for around 20 years, and yet many teachers still appear to be either unconvinced, or unaware, of how to release the potential of such technology to assist students to learn mathematics. This research describes a study addressing aspects of the teacher's role in integrating technology into their pedagogy. It considers issues related to the didactical contract, pedagogical technology knowledge (PTK), and procedural and conceptual knowledge in GC integration in teaching by two groups of secondary teachers. The results describe a number of factors that identify teacher progress toward pedagogical integration of digital technology and from these some tentative inferences for teacher professional development may be drawn.
