A volume in Research on Technology and the Teaching and Learningof Mathematics: Syntheses, Cases, and Perspectives
According to NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, "Technology is
essential in teaching and learning of mathematics; it influences the mathematics that is taught
and it enhances students' learning." How does research inform this clarion call for technology in
mathematics teaching and learning? In response to the need to craft appropriate roles for
technology in school mathematics new technological approaches have been applied to the
teaching and learning of mathematics, and these approaches have been examined by researchers
world-wide.
The second volume has a dual focus: cases and perspectives. It features descriptive cases that
provide accounts of the development of technology-intensive curriculum and tools. In these
cases the writers describe and analyze various roles that research played in their development
work and ways in which research, curriculum development, and tool development can inform
each other. These thoughtful descriptions and analyses provide documentation of how this process
can and does occur. The remaining chapters in the second volume address research-related issues and perspectives on the use of
technology in the teaching and learning of mathematics. The lessons learned from the research presented in these volumes are lessons
about teaching and learning that can be applied more broadly than solely in technological settings.
