| description | The use of technology in teaching
mathematics have great potentials and make
significant contributions to students' learning
specifically in developing skills in mathematical
modeling through exploration, develop logical
thinking and modify strategies and assumptions
through immediate feedback, work with large sets
of data and learn and memorize by manipulating
graphic images. In this study an experiential
learning utilizing mathematical softwares
Autographs, Geometer Sketchpad and Graphing
Calculator on Functions and Statistics was
conducted involving students in Mathematics
Teaching Methodology Course (EDU 3069). These
students are trained to be mathematics teacher for
the secondary level and are in their final year of
study.
The findings from this study indicated that
integrating the use of Autographs, Geometer
Sketchpad and Graphing Calculator in the learning
activity benefited learners. Overall, this study has
shown promising implications for the potential
efficacy of the software in teaching mathematics at
Malaysian secondary school level. These findings
will also benefit various agencies viz-a-viz Ministry
of Education, mathematics educators, teachers,
curriculum developers through wider use of
technology in teaching and learning. |
