Tech Tools

Got Technology? 

Can technology help to support your students through personalized learning, visual representations, digital tools, and online activities to support making connections and explaining their thinking?

A meta-analysis of the effect of technology on mathematics achievement showed statistically significant gains across the K-12 classroom (Slavin & Chung, 2013). Students who reported their teachers used computers frequently as a way to demonstrate new topics had higher levels of math achievement (House, 2011). Mathematics knowledge was also positively related to the use of multimedia strategies for elementary students (Weiss, Kramarski, & Tails, 2006). 

If students are working on a project-based learning task, then digital tools that support students in the creation phase of their project might be useful to consider, whereas teachers who are explaining a concept might need virtual manipulatives to help students construct a model.   

As such I have created a classification of technology tools in relation to mathematics instruction.  Have fun, take a look and share your teaching ideas and technology tools with me.

  9. The Internet was designed to offer users freedom to access vast information. Unfortunately, to the unwary, this freedom can be compromised or restricted. Internet users can overcome these rights from being compromised with a Virtual Private Network (VPN). deep web

  10. It's consistent with say that similarly as an all around planned touch board can upgrade your framework, an inadequately planned board can similarly cheapen it or even render it futile. Yealink Meetingbar A30
