Through detailed lessons and examples, discover how to integrate
technology in 6-12 math to amplify and enhance your mathematics
teaching and drive student learning. Instead of drill-and-practice
apps and worksheets, what if technology enabled exploration of math
concepts? Instead of screens for disconnected individual learning,
what if technology fostered mathematical discourse and collaboration?
Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach to teaching mathematics, what
if we used technology to differentiate to meet students’ diverse
needs? Technology has the power and potential to support the teaching
and learning of math content at all grade levels, but the presence of
technology is insufficient unless it’s paired with effective
teaching practices and meaningful content. This book poses and unpacks
the above questions and many more, with examples that illustrate how
to integrate technology in the 6-12 math classroom, highlighting
opportunities to transform mathematics teaching through strategic
technology use. The book: Illustrates two contrasting examples in each
chapter, including transcripts of sample class conversations,
mathematical tasks, illustrations of student work and reflection and
discussion prompts. Features discussion of research-based ideas
relating to the contrasts presented in the chapters, encouraging
readers to connect what they learn from the specific cases with the
research on these topics. Covers a variety of mathematics content
areas such as functions and algebraic thinking, geometry and
measurement, and data and statistics. Provides strategies for
implementing the concepts in class, with ideas and examples of tools
based not on how they look but what they can do in your mathematics
teaching. Today’s technology offers more possibilities than ever for
supporting students in mathematics. This book draws upon the latest
research in technology and math education, while providing tools to
incorporate effective strategies into curriculum right away. Audience:
6-12 educators
