Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, v20 n1 p75-100 Feb 2017
This study investigates three teachers' uses of a dynamic geometry program (The Geometer's Sketchpad) in their high school geometry classes over a 2-year period. The researchers examine teachers' actions and questions during pivotal teaching moments to characterize mathematics instruction that utilizes technology. Findings support an association between teacher--tool relationships, predominant teacher actions, and questioning.
