  1. Manipulatives and Technologies Their Role in Teaching and Learning Mathematics

  2. Sample Problem • If the entire tangram is worth $20, how much is each piece worth?

  3. Research … Manipulatives support the conceptual development of important mathematical ideas for tactile and visual learners.

  4. Research … • Students learn in the presence of technology. • Technology should influence the mathematics content taught and how it is taught.

  5. Research … “The use of technology can improve the literacy, math and science skills of students, including students at risk of school failure, by engaging them in reality-based, multidisciplinary tasks.” (Edvancenet, n. d.)

  6. Vision • Engagement • Confidence • Skill development • Motivation • Relevance

  7. Relational Rods If the brown rod is a whole, what fraction are the red, pink, and orange rods?

  8. Geoboard How many different-sized squares can be made on an 11x11 geoboard?

  9. Algebra tiles • Connecting cubes • Fathom • Motion sensor • TI-15 or graphing calculator

  10. Geometer’s Sketchpad

  11. In conclusion … • What impact does the information presented have for us? • What are our next steps?
