Book The Effects of Desmos and TI 83 Plus Graphing Calculators on the Problem solving Confidence of Middle and High School Mathematics Students

Download or read book The Effects of Desmos and TI 83 Plus Graphing Calculators on the Problem solving Confidence of Middle and High School Mathematics Students written by Edwin Montijo and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As technology in education continues to improve, research is necessary to assess the impact it is having on students’ confidence in the way students solve mathematics problems. The purpose of this quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control-group comparison study is to examine the impact the Desmos graphing calculator has on the problem-solving confidence of middle school and high school students as compared to students who use a TI-83 Plus graphing calculator while controlling for students’ math achievement scores. The students (N = 146) participating in this study were learning their respective mathematics material for an equivalent period of 12 weeks in order to determine whether students who used the Desmos calculator experienced a statistically significant difference in problem-solving confidence levels. Students in both groups took the assessment at the end of the 12-week period of learning and an Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test whether there was a significant difference in the scores of the Problem Solving Inventory (PSI). Results indicate that there was a statistically significant difference in problem-solving confidence scores between middle and high school students who used the Desmos graphing calculator as compared to students who used a TI-83 Plus graphing calculator, while controlling for student math achievement scores.

Book The Role of Graphing Calculators in Students  Algebraic Thinking

Download or read book The Role of Graphing Calculators in Students Algebraic Thinking written by Sandy Margaret Spitzer and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapter 1 provides a review of the literature on the effects of using graphing calculators on students' mathematics achievement. General findings suggest that calculators can have a positive effect on students' performance on assessments. In particular, students using graphing calculators seem to do better on some types of problems, such as those requiring translation between different representations of a function, and perform about the same as students without calculators on procedural symbolic-manipulation problems. In order to identify possible mechanisms for these changes, the chapter explores four possible reasons for students' improved performance: improved representational fluency, wider repertoire of solution strategies, increased reification of mathematical concepts, and changes in classroom processes. While the general trend of improved achievement appears robust, none of the four hypothesized reasons for improvement were substantiated by enough data to be confirmed. While it appears that the basic effects of graphing calculators are relatively well determined, mechanisms for those effects are poorly understood. Chapter 2 presents the result of a study whose goal was to investigate how the presence of graphing calculator technology influences the mathematical ideas that students encounter while solving algebra problems. Thirty-three Algebra II students, divided randomly into two conditions, participated in task-based interviews. In one condition, students were encouraged to solve algebra problems using their graphing calculator, and in the other condition, students solved the same problems with no access to technology. Results indicate that when students used graphing calculators, they were more likely to interpret letters as variables rather than fixed unknowns, used a wider range of strategies, were more likely to use more than one strategy to solve a problem, and expressed deeper levels of conceptual understanding. The differences in conceptual understanding and interpretation of letters were strongly related to the types of strategies that students used to solve problems, with graphing and tables encouraging more sophisticated interpretations and evidence of conceptual understanding.

Book Teaching Mathematics in Secondary and Middle School

Download or read book Teaching Mathematics in Secondary and Middle School written by James S. Cangelosi and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2003 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For courses in secondary or middle school math. This text focuses on all the complex aspects of teaching mathematics in today's classroom and the most current NCTM standards. It demonstrates how to creatively incorporate the standards into teaching along with inquiry-based instructional strategies. Using one expansive case study that follows a mathematics teacher through his first year in the profession, the text illustrates how to lead pupils toward meaningful mathematics and strategies for developing mathematics skills. Interactive in its approach, the text includes an abundance of illustrative examples, mini case studies, cooperative learning activities, field-based activities, and transitional activities.
