Abstract

In this talk, I will discuss the current state of mobile educational technology initiatives involving tablets (e.g. iPads), laptops, and other mobile electronic devices. What does this mean to the modern mathematics classroom at the elementary or high school level? What does the implementation actually look like? In addition to exploring these questions, I will demonstrate the functionality of several popular educational mathematics apps and discuss the possible impacts on student learning. Against this background, I will describe the iPad initiative at Paxson School in Missoula and my current research there in second grade classrooms.
