Technology-Enriched Teaching of Secondary Mathematics: Factors Influencing Innovative Practice

This paper reports on the initial phase of a research study that is investigating how and why secondary school mathematics teachers use digital technologies to help their students learn. Case studies of a beginning teacher and an experienced teacher, both of whom are regarded as effective users of technology, aim to identify critical factors that support or hinder innovative teaching and learni...

Metacognition through Technology and Teaching

Effective learning merely does not imply manipulation of information, which is integrated into an existing knowledge base, but rather, directing attention to what one has assimilated, understanding relationship between new information and what is already known, understanding the process which facilitated this and being aware that something new has actually been learnt. This article deals with t...

Technology Integration and Teaching Expertise

This paper reports on a study that investigated the relationships between technology-use and teaching ability in the practice of elementary teachers. Case study data from exemplary technology integrators, representing various levels of teaching and technology-use ability, led to the formulation of five assertions about ways these teachers taught with technology: (1) the ways technology was used...

Teaching Algorithmics – Theory and Practice

Efficient algorithms and data structures are important fundamentals of all sophisticated computer applications. For that reason, these topics are included in Computer Science and Business Informatics curricula at almost all universities. Indeed, the classic textbooks present algorithms mainly as pure mathematical results [3]. They leave the challenges of their implementation to the readers. On ...
