Abstract. The incorporation of digital technologies (both multiple purpose and mathematics action technologies) in mathematical learning environments can foster and extend discussions among learners and teachers even beyond class time. That is, learners not only keep reflecting on mathematical ideas or problems; but also they can review or consult related online resources. Similarly, the use of dynamic geometry systems provides affordances to construct dynamic models of tasks where learners can analyse how objects move within the configuration and formulate mathematical relations. In this report, we discuss three exemplars to characterize ways in which the use of technology extends mathematical reasoning in problem solving approaches. This information becomes important for teachers to value and frame the incorporation of technology in learning environments. At the end, some limitations of this approach are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
