Download or read book The Effect of Technology on Student Achievement in a High School Mathematics Classroom written by James Alan Jacobson and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aimed to find a link between technology and achievement by comparing 9th grade algebra students split into intervention and comparison groups. The intervention group used technology everyday in all aspects of class where the comparison group only used traditional methods. After the four-week intervention, all students were given a traditional exam and an exam measuring higher order thinking over the material presented and the results were compared. While technology seemed to have some impact on the effects of student achievement, the results were not dramatic either for or against technology. Several factors may have interfered between the groups including student discipline and classroom chemistry, quality of the intervention group assignments, and different versions of mathematical symbols. The author will continue to seek high quality applets for teaching mathematics because he observed they affected students' participation, curiosity, and in-depth learning.

Download or read book Impact of IPad Technology on Achievement in Math written by Cody Joseph Geiser and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As iPads become more prevalent in education, questions about their effect on student achievement are important to explore. By setting up a control group, who are taught using traditional techniques, and an experimental group, who have each lesson supplemented with iPad activities, the study was designed to shed some light on how iPads can influence student achievement in mathematics. Data from the students' scores and their own analysis of their learning was used to determine the outcome of the study. The results of the analysis of study found that Algebra 8 classroom using iPads tested lower and improved less than the classroom that was taught without the iPad supplemental activities. However, the student response to utilizing iPads regularly in class was strongly favored and the students as a whole felt that the iPad activities did help them learn. Due to a variety of reasons and factors, further research on utilizing technology in education will be important for schools and educators to make decisions about how best to educate their students.

Taken together, the analyses provide guidance on the design of future technology research grounded in student learning of K-12 curriculum. The conclusions also serve as a tool for teacher educators seeking to prepare teachers to integrate technology effectively in their instruction and to motivate reluctant teachers to overcome perceived inconveniences connected with technology use.
Download or read book STEM Project Based Learning written by Robert M. Capraro and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-20 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of Project-Based Learning (PBL) presents an original approach to Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) centric PBL. We define PBL as an “ill-defined task with a well-defined outcome,” which is consistent with our engineering design philosophy and the accountability highlighted in a standards-based environment. This model emphasizes a backward design that is initiated by well-defined outcomes, tied to local, state, or national standard that provide teachers with a framework guiding students’ design, solving, or completion of ill-defined tasks. This book was designed for middle and secondary teachers who want to improve engagement and provide contextualized learning for their students. However, the nature and scope of the content covered in the 14 chapters are appropriate for preservice teachers as well as for advanced graduate method courses. New to this edition is revised and expanded coverage of STEM PBL, including implementing STEM PBL with English Language Learners and the use of technology in PBL. The book also includes many new teacher-friendly forms, such as advanced organizers, team contracts for STEM PBL, and rubrics for assessing PBL in a larger format.

Download or read book The Impact of Technology Integration on Mathematic Achievement written by Rebecca Irwin and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect technology has on student math achievement. A class of twenty-one students was divided into two random groups to determine if the integration of technology improved student math achievement. A T-Test was completed to determine if there is a significant difference between student achievement and technology use. Although the findings in this study do not show a significant difference, previous research and studies have shown that it can have a positive impact with proper training and resources. After evaluating the data from this study and reviewing literature, it was discovered that technology can have an impact on student achievement when educators are properly trained and resources are readily available. The challenges faced in this study can be used in future research to pinpoint how technology should be implemented in the classroom successfully.
Download or read book How People Learn written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-08-11 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First released in the Spring of 1999, How People Learn has been expanded to show how the theories and insights from the original book can translate into actions and practice, now making a real connection between classroom activities and learning behavior. This edition includes far-reaching suggestions for research that could increase the impact that classroom teaching has on actual learning. Like the original edition, this book offers exciting new research about the mind and the brain that provides answers to a number of compelling questions. When do infants begin to learn? How do experts learn and how is this different from non-experts? What can teachers and schools do-with curricula, classroom settings, and teaching methodsâ€"to help children learn most effectively? New evidence from many branches of science has significantly added to our understanding of what it means to know, from the neural processes that occur during learning to the influence of culture on what people see and absorb. How People Learn examines these findings and their implications for what we teach, how we teach it, and how we assess what our children learn. The book uses exemplary teaching to illustrate how approaches based on what we now know result in in-depth learning. This new knowledge calls into question concepts and practices firmly entrenched in our current education system. Topics include: How learning actually changes the physical structure of the brain. How existing knowledge affects what people notice and how they learn. What the thought processes of experts tell us about how to teach. The amazing learning potential of infants. The relationship of classroom learning and everyday settings of community and workplace. Learning needs and opportunities for teachers. A realistic look at the role of technology in education.

Download or read book Lessons Learned written by Tom Loveless and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008-08-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Standards for education achievement are under scrutiny throughout the industrial world. In this technological age, student performance in mathematics is seen as being particularly important. For more than four decades, international assessments conducted by the International Association for Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) have measured how well students are learning mathematics in different countries. The latest round of mathematics testing of the Trends in Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) takes place in 2007. Beyond the horse race—the rankings that compare nations—what have we learned from the wealth of data collected in these assessments? How do US math curriculums compare to those used overseas? Is the effect of technology in the classroom uniform across nations? How do popular math reforms fare abroad? Those are some of the critical issues tackled in this important book. The authors use the database to address several pressing questions about school policy and educational research. For example, Ina Mullis and Michael Martin review the major lessons learned over the history of TIMSS testing. William Schmidt and Richard T. Houang examine whether curricular breadth affects student achievement. Jeremy Kilpatrick, Vilma Mesa, and Finbarr Sloane evaluate American performance in algebra relative to other nations and pinpoint strengths and weaknesses in American students' learning of algebra.
