Key to using digital technologies for learning encourages students to be creative and producers of meaning. These activities challenge students to work collaboratively to seek answers using higher order thinking skills. Digital Learning and Mathematics is a free community website for educators promoting an awareness of digital tools for learning in mathematics.
Community engagement will focus on the discussion of curated resources that support teachers in the current pedagogies that effectively leverage just in-time learning, skill building, problem solving, conceptual development and use of emerging technologies for learning mathematics.
In summary, the Digital Learning and Mathematics community development areas currently are:
- Awareness of digital tools for mathematics
- Curated resources
- Contemporary pedagogies
- Just in-time learning
- Skill building
- Problem solving
- Conceptual development
- Visualisation
- Emerging technologies
The Forum can be used to provide or request resources. If you have resources (learning activities, reviewed weblinks, curriculum materials, research etc) you can share related to this community's focus please contact the Connect with Maths team at connectwithmaths@aamt.edu.au
