The document discusses how technology can be used in the classroom to enhance learning. It notes that technology allows students to explore curriculum topics, gather information from online sources, and create and present information in innovative ways. It also argues that technology is needed to develop skills like digital literacy that students will need for the future. When used appropriately, technology can help make the classroom a site for active, student-centered learning that develops critical thinking skills.
Teaching Math in the classroom

- 2. Why Use Technology in the Classroom? Technology, when used appropriately, can help make classroom a site of active learning and critical thinking, furthering student inquiry and connections with the materials.
- 3. Why Use Technology in the Classroom? Teachers can use technology to enable students to explore fundamental curriculum issues and answer core questions. Students can use the internet,electronic databases, applets and other online sources to gather information.
- 4. Why Use Technology in the Classroom? Students can also integrate multimedia desktop publishing, web publishing, video and audio editing, as well as graphics programs to create and present information in innovative and engaging ways.
- 5. Why Use Technology in Teaching in the Classroom? Researchers like Howard Gardner (2006), Tony Wagner (2008), Henry Jenkins (2007), Frank Levy and Richard Murnane (2004), and others believe that technology is needed for students in the future---digital age literacy.
- 6. Why Use Technology in Teaching in the Classroom? To develop these skills, we need classrooms where students are working in teams and using technology to build creative, meaningful content that reflects their understanding and learning.
- 7. Why Use Technology in Teaching in the Classroom? In these environments, teachers act often as facilitators and mentors rather than always fonts of authoritative knowledge. These classrooms are dramatically different from the ones where our most current teachers grew up, apprenticed, and taught.
- 8. Why Use Technology in Teaching in the Classroom? As a result, helping teachers effectively use new technology to support innovative, student-centered, inquiry-based learning will involve leveraging these emerging technologies.
- 9. Why Use Technology in Teaching in the Classroom? Change is made by people - but people are more effective when they have well-engineered tools that suit their purposes.
- 10. Why Use Technology in Teaching Math? Foundations for Success was a report produced under US Department of Education. This report says that the National Mathematics Advisory Panel recommended technology to freshen up a tired curriculum, noting that "technology-based drill and practice and tutorials can improve student performance in specific areas of mathematics. http://www2.ed.gov/about/bdscomm/list/mathpanel/report/final-report.pdf
- 11. Why Use Technology in Teaching Math? The report also said student achievement is higher in classes that use instructional software than in those that do not. And the report cited studies that show teaching computer programming to students can support the development of particular mathematical concepts, applications, and problem-solving skills.
