Mobile math: math educators and students engage in mobile learning

Abstract: The public and educational communities are aware of the continuing crisis in math education in our middle schools and the convergence of technologies for teaching and learning. This paper presents a case study in which iPod Touch Ò was used to help middle school students learn about algebraic equations and, in particular, the concept of slope, absolute value, and elimination. The development of math movies for use on the iPod Touch provided students with a mobile means of informal math learning beyond the hour… Show more

“…Early studies of mobile learning in mathematics date from shortly before 2010 (see Franklin and Peng (2008) as example), and since then we have witnessed a growth in this type of research, both at international conferences and in specialized journals. Most of the literature reviewed for this survey can be divided into three broad categories: (a) studies on the potential of mobile devices for teaching and learning mathematics; (b) affective studies on the use of mobile devices; and (c) use of mobile devices in mathematics teacher education.…”

“…The impact of mobile devices in educational settings continues to be an area of considerable interest for both researchers and practising educators (Reid and Ostashewski, 2011). Examining the use of mobile technologies provides insight into education, student expectations, and the limitations and benefits of mobile technologies (Franklin and Peng, 2008). The rapid rise in popularity and perceived potential of the iPad has led to many educational services in the United States and elsewhere purchasing Apple iPads for their students.…”
