Nurturing self-regulation by mathematical inquiry in a one-to-one TEL environment

Abstract

We design and evaluate a curriculum-based mathematical learning activity involving secondary students’ geometrical constructions, mathematical modeling and algebraic validation of hypotheses based on hands-on explorations with the interactive geometry application GeoGebra available on individual laptops. We argue that guided inquiries in a technology-enhanced learning environment that invites blending of interactive technologies and traditional resources may be an efficient means for developing self-regulatory skills.
