This is an interesting website because it provides access to
many articles from teachers who have found many different ways of implementing
technology into their classrooms.
This article also describes the different tools that can be used such as
Excel and the TI-Nspire in order to introduce new mathematical topics. Many of the articles are about the
different technologies they can use to model and graph many different functions
and geometric shapes. The best
part about the website is that even though you have to subscribe to the
website, the subscription is free!
There is even an article that talks about aids for building proofs,
which I feel, is an area that students usually struggle with in math. Beyond building proofs there are
articles that discuss how to discover theorems. Mathematical theorems are often hard for students to
understand, but if they are working to discover them on their own they will
have a better grasp on the concepts.
Theorems are important because with the use of different theorems we can
prove new mathematical concepts and have our students becoming real
mathematicians.
