Technology in mathematics
It has been suggested that, when used in conjunction with appropriate teaching methods, online technologies have the potential to address some of the challenges associated with mathematics education by facilitating realistic, problem-solving, and collaborative methodologies to teaching and learning, thereby providing coherency and context for the mathematics. Several authors contend, however, that while the use of technology in the mathematics classroom is increasing, the outcomes do not always match the technology's potential to improve educational experiences. This research summarizes the general aspects of current scientific research on the use of technologies in mathematics instruction. A classification is constructed and applied, resulting in a snapshot of the current state of the field. Furthermore, the classification conclusions provide a prism through which future research might be viewed.
