Crutch or Catalyst: Teachers' Beliefs and Practices Regarding Calculator use in Mathematics Instruction

This study investigated K‐12 teachers' beliefs and reported teaching practices regarding calculator use in their mathematics instruction. A survey was administered to more than 800 elementary, middle and high school teachers in a large metropolitan area to address the following questions: (a) what are the beliefs and practices of mathematics teachers regarding calculator use? and (b) how do these beliefs and practices differ among teachers in three grade bands? Factor analysis of 20 Likert scale items revealed four factors that accounted for 54% of the variance in the ratings. These factors were named Catalyst Beliefs, Teacher Knowledge, Crutch Beliefs, and Teacher Practices. Compared to elementary teachers, high school teachers were significantly higher in their perception of calculator use as a catalyst in mathematics instruction. However, the higher the grade level of the teacher, the higher the mean score on the perception that calculator use may be a way of getting answers without understanding mathematical processes. The mean scores for teachers in all three grade bands indicated agreement that students can learn mathematics through calculator use and using calculators in instruction will lead to better student understanding and make mathematics more interesting. The survey results shed light on teachers' self reported beliefs, knowledge, and practices in regard to consistency with elements of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (2000) technology principle and the NCTM use of technology position paper (2003). This study extended previous research on teachers' beliefs regarding calculator use in classrooms by examining and comparing the results of teacher surveys across three grade bands.     

The Interaction Between The Use of Ict And Mathematics Teachers’ Professional Knowledge Base for Teaching

With the increased availability of information and communications technology (ICT) in schools, it is important to examine how teachers use it in their instruction. This paper describes a study that involved a number of secondary mathematics teachers who had been using the new technology in their teaching for a number of years. It reports on some of the factors affecting teacher’ use of the new technology identified by analysing the data collected through questionnaires and teachers’ interviews. A possible theoretical framework to account for teachers’ learning about ICT and teachers’ incorporation of ICT into their planning for teaching mathematics is presented.     

Good mathematics instruction in South Korea

There have been only a few studies of Korean mathematics instruction in international contexts. Given this, this paper describes in detail a sixth grade teacher’s mathematics instruction in order to investigate closely what may be counted as high-quality teaching and learning in Korea. This paper then discusses several key characteristics of good mathematics instruction along with some background information on Korean educational practice. This paper concludes with remarks that good mathematics instruction may be perceived differently with regard to underlying social and cultural norms.     

Korean and American Elementary School Teachers' Beliefs about Mathematics Problem Solving

Elementary school teachers in South Korea and the United States completed a beliefs and practices questionnaire pertaining to mathematical problem-solving instruction. Although both groups of teachers shared a general approach to teaching with a focus on problem-solving strategies, many differences were apparent. Korean teachers rated themselves and their students higher in problem-solving ability than American teachers. Korean teachers perceived their mathematics textbook as a more valuable source for problem-solving instruction and word problems. Korean teachers more strongly agreed that students should know the key-word approach for solving problems. American teachers reported more frequent use of calculators, manipulatives, and small group instruction. The results indicate that American teachers may more often use instructional techniques that are aligned with current recommendations for mathematics instruction.     

Elementary teachers’ mathematical beliefs and mathematics anxiety: How do they shape instructional practices?

This quantitative study investigated the relationships among practicing elementary teachers’ (N = 153) beliefs about mathematics and its teaching and learning, mathematics anxiety, and instructional practices in mathematics. When viewed singly, the findings reveal the teachers with higher levels of mathematics anxiety tend to use less standards‐based instruction and those with beliefs oriented toward a problem‐solving view of mathematics reported more standards‐based teaching. A combined analysis shows that after controlling for mathematical beliefs, teaching longevity, and educational degree attainment, there is no relationship between teachers’ mathematics anxiety and instructional practices. These findings suggest a spurious relationship between anxiety and practices, with beliefs having the strongest relationship with practices. Several suggestions for positively influencing the mathematical beliefs and affect in general of elementary teachers while learning mathematics are offered.     

A Model for Integrating Technology in Preservice Science and Mathematics Content-Specific Teacher Preparation

A model of a 1-year, graduate level content-specific teacher preparation program is described that integrates learning about and teaching with electronic technologies as an integral component in teaching and learning science and mathematics, grades 3–12. The development of an integrated knowledge structure of science/math, technology, and teaching science/math with technology requires experiences focused on an integration of three important components: planning during the preactive stage, monitoring and regulating during the interactive stage, and assessing and revising in the postactive stage of teaching. The program model features an integration of experiences in incorporating technology in teaching science and math that specifically relate or interconnect their thinking in these three stages of instruction.     

Technology Use in the Teaching of Mathematics and Science in Elementary Schools

Principals from 80 elementary schools, in predominantly rural Western Pennsylvania, completed and returned a 22-item questionnaire designed to assess the nature and extent of technology use for the teaching of elementary mathematics and science within their buildings. Technologies included calculators, microcomputers, overhead projection panels, videotape, and interactive video. Microcomputers were being used in at least some elementary grade levels for mathematics or science instruction in 84% of the schools. Teachers used microcomputers more frequently in mathematics (82.5%) than in science instruction (55%). Principals reported a lower frequency of calculator use with 63.3% of the schools having some grade levels where calculators were used in mathematics lessons, and 21.5% of schools in science lessons. Further analyses of data suggest that microcomputer and calculator use is more common in the intermediate grades (3–6) than in the primary grades (K-2).     

Does the chalkboard still hold its own against modern technology in teaching mathematics? A case study

The purpose of this case study is to explore the integration of technology into teaching at a mathematics department at a large South African University. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected from staff teaching undergraduate mathematics. The study shows that many staff members feel that chalkboards are still more suitable than technology for teaching mathematics. This finding supports the idea of a strong subject culture. Age does not emerge as a determinant for preference of either technology or the chalkboard, although gender and academic qualifications do. Subject culture is strongly rooted under the male members of staff, while female staff members feel more positive towards the use of technology in teaching. Use of chalkboards has decreased significantly over the past 10 years, while the use of modern technologies has increased accordingly. Teaching of large groups has necessitated the use of technology in the classroom. Despite the strong subject culture, a shift in attitude towards technology use in teaching is noticed and there is a definite trend of moving towards using new technologies.     

L’enseignement des mathématiques dans l’enseignement secondaire maghrébin

The goal of this talk is to study the following questions. Does the mathematics teaching in the secondary schools in the Maghreb prepare to University studies and more specifically does it initiate students to modern science and technology? Is anyone able to understand mathematics or is mathematics only accessible to the happy few Is it a means of selection? Is mathematics omnipresent in our modern society? What relationship can one hope to find between mathematics and other disciplines? Has mathematics evolved to such an abstract and formal state that it seems difficult relate it to any other topic? All these questions are discussed in relationship with the particular problems in the Maghreb, namely the mathematics program as taught today in these countries.
