- Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine the contents of mathematics textbook which were used in upper-primary stages in terms of compliance to technology. In order to get the required data, the contents of 5, 6, 7, 8 grade mathematics textbooks which were determined as course books for the following five years being valid from their publication year by Ministry of National Education were analyzed. In the content analysis process, the themes which were analyzed are the following; type of technology, the frequency of usage with regards to learning domain and the purpose of technology use. The general findings showed that the most frequently used technological teaching tool was a calculator and this tool was mostly used to support calculation skill. On the other hand, it was found that the contents on the examined course books which provided opportunities for the use of technology were notably limited. The number of activities and examples on course books should be increased in order to benefit effectively from course books in the process of providing e-contents for FATIH project. This study presented some recommendations for the researchers who will study on this subject.
