Abstract

As digital technology becomes more ubiquitous in society and education, mathematics teachers are expected to design and integrate technology-enriched learning environments effectively. This task encompasses many challenges, but primarily, it entails the identification of how technology may produce insights. This study examines several categories of core mathematical processes that can be enhanced by the integration of dynamic interactive software such as identifying properties, connecting multiple representations, and solving problems, among others. The process of visualization appears at the center of dynamic and interactive mathematics learning environments. Evidence of its functionality and the benefits it reports to the teaching and learning process for each category is presented. Further discussion on the challenges that mathematics teacher education programs and teachers face—not only in their digital competences but also in the role they play—are outlined.
