Harries, Tony; Suggate, Jennifer – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2006
Numbers can be represented in a variety of ways--through pictures, diagrams, symbols. Each representation highlights different features of the number and the number system. This study aims to explore pupil understanding of number both within and across representations. A computer environment (suite of programmes) was created within which…

Trigueros, Maria; Lozano, Maria Dolores; Lage, Ana Elisa – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2006
"Enciclomedia" is a Mexican project for primary school teaching using computers in the classroom. Within this project, and following an enactivist theoretical perspective and methodology, we have designed a computer-based package called "Dados", which, together with teaching guides, is intended to support the teaching and learning of probability.…
