I am one of those who worries about ‘the basics’ but can see the argument that we don’t need computational skills in a world of computers. I can see that using computational tools allows us to focus more on concepts and ideas and allows us to use real world, ‘not nice’ numbers. However, I am caught in a system which still uses exams for assessment, so need to find a balance. Sadly, in my system, they have reintroduced calculator – free testing, meaning that my students must still do some problems by hand.

Today we are in a digital era and it is important to adapt to the times.

My students use technological tools  because they work more enthusiastically and learn better.

The dangers at school are limited because we teachers are attentive and we monitor our students, unfortunately the most frequent danger is at home, because parents always think that they can trust their own son, and in my opinion they are wrong.

I have enjoyed the video, and I mainly agree with the speaker: we should not spend too time in teaching calculating. But as he said, basics as arithmetics are useful for quick estimation, and I add it is useful for a sort of exercise for mind/neurons too. Exercising helps to automate calculation and to make it quicker. First lessons in my classrooms always try to show the utility of maths in everyday life and real world, and I also try to show how beautiful maths is. So we find that calculating can be useful and funny, and we have computers and calculators to make life easier. To students I teach usually the basics of Geogebra, for example to view the transformation from a polygon to a circle (like in the video): students get really excited about the discovery! So computers are useful, but in my region not everybody owns one, and not every school has enough pc for students, that means we have to adapt...

As most of you I think that technology should be used when the learning is more effective. The danger could be that we are occupied too much with  techology instead with learning Maths.

I use the new technologies in the classroom and agree with what was shown. But, as we have said, we can not work only these means there must be others that allow students to discover, to move, to get involved with the project, with the activity. But it is very important that the use of new technologies allows us to interact with students and students interacting with something that we would otherwise not be able to show.

I do believe that tech is important. My subject is not Maths but Technology (Yes, in Italy we've such a thing...). But I force my students to draw tech drawings with pencil and sheets. I think that the wrong message we could pass them is that with technologies everything is easy and they don't have to study anymore. An exhmaple. When in the music we had the Grunge, every pseudo musician thought that it wasn't necesssesary to study music anymore to be a good performer. to be effective and to have success. That was a fake and it took some years to gain this awareness. Following this I firmly sure that tech will be the future and it's already, but I believe that our students cannot forget how to write, how to make counts without a calculator, write without a corrector and so on.

We use technologies in everyday life, so using them in the classroom is logical. I like using technologies in my classroom because math is more fun, interesting and attractive for students.

I believe that using technology in math classes must not be the purpose it self. It have to be the natural and logical step which will unable students to have all the benefits that were mentioned in the prezi and Conrad Wolfram's video. Unfortunatly, teachers in my country are also bounded by the curriculum which does not support using technology in math classes.

# data[].attributes.body
All my students use technologies in their everyday life, using them in the classroom is only the next logical step. Unfortunately I have to prepare the exams, where the students need to be able calculate, without any help from outside. Therefor I see myself bound by the curricula, and I use technologies with moderation.

Digital technologies are useful tools to teach Maths but, in my opinion, the basis of learning Maths should be manipulation and play. When students are young, technology is also used, but much more manipulation.

The students like to learn with technology, but it has to be used with measure. it is an educational way of learning (there are useful applications). I use technology in the Math classes.

I really like Conrad Wolfram's ideas. Ithink Math is much more than calculating too. Unfortunately curricula and exams need calculating. It's really boring and frustrating for students and also for some teacher like me. It's a great problem for pupils with special needs.

# data[].attributes.body
Think about our students, they were born in technological era and we must speak their language to be understanding, to be interesting, to make a pleasant Math. No one of Math teachers use in excess technology, so couldn't be dangerous for our students.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion digital technologies in Maths are very useful, not only because in this way Maths should be more interesting, but also because, with their use, some topics are better understood.
I also agree with Wolfram when he says that students should be able to solve real problems, and develop reasoning skills.
However, I think that calculation, not very difficult, are important too, and that it doesn't exclude the others.
Otherwise it would be like saying that children don't need to learn multiplication tables because there are calculators.

Jeremy Posey, the mathematics coordinator for the National Math + Science Initiative, defines education technology as “any tool that can be used to help promote human learning, including – but not limited to – calculators, tablets, Smart Boards, video cameras, digital cameras, MP3 players, Portable Digital Assistants (PDAs), and, of course, the computer.”

There is certainly a growing, changing role of the college professor from a sage-on-the-stage to a more interactive designer of instruction and classroom experience. This can be a fantastic opportunity for you to experiment and grow in realms you perhaps hadn’t originally considered.

The Pros

1.      Using technology in the classroom allows you to experiment more in pedagogy.

2.      There are countless resources for enhancing education and making learning more fun and effective.

3.      Technology can automate a lot of your tedious tasks.

4.      Your class has instant access to information that can supplement their learning experience.

5.      Students can learn life skills through technology.

6.      We live in a digital world.

The Cons

1.      Technology can be a distraction.

2.      Possible disconnect of social interaction.

3.      Technology can foster more cheating in class and on assignments.

4.      Students do not have equal access to technological resources.

5.      The quality of research and sources they find may not be top-notch.

6.      Lesson planning can become more labor intensive with technology.

It's inspiring and I really feel entusiastic thinking about all the opportunity technology can give to math teaching. In one of my class we have a IWB but in the other one we have nothing to use. That's something make me sad about the opportunity the students of that class will lost. I try to help by taking the projector and a pc, but isn't simple to use and isn't the same than the IWB.
Obviously we can't simply use technology with old methods or only to make children enjoy the vision. It's the way they frequently use technology at home but can't be the way choosen by an educational institution.

# data[].attributes.body
I am, according to the prezzi and video. I believe that new technologies are tools that bring abstract concepts closer to reality, besides being able to manipulate them and give students the opportunity to create worlds that until now was impossible. But, we should not think that these tools can supply an educator, whose function transcends beyond

# data[].attributes.body
Technologies can influence both learners and teachers way to approach Maths lessons and learning in general. They help teachers to prepare more appealing, interactive and dynamics lessons (every day you can create something new and that's inspiring!). Technologies help students to easily understand and memorize new subjects. I think this is amazing.

Furthermore, collaboration among teachers of different subjects is greatly improved by technologies.

# data[].attributes.body
Digital technologies can facilitate maths for students and teachers. They could be a step in order to realize the structure of maths and make it easier to understand. However, overloading of technologies may disorientate from the objectives posed by the teachers during a math lesson. Students may not focus on understanding a mathematical concept but in the way a digital tool is used.

# data[].attributes.body
Digital technologies are usefull tools because they attract students' attention. They provide manipulative learning, students can compare different results. But the teacher must work on it before the lessons. Students are good at using technologies but it's important to orient them on the right way.

# data[].attributes.body
Digital technologies are essential into helping children think in different ways and different representation for example see the type of a function and figure out the graph. In problem solving reflecting real problem can be used to simulate the problem and presented in different ways. ICT are very important in teaching graphs and their moves. Can help the children feel the math.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that digital technologies can increase students' interest in maths especially if we use it ,as well as to facilitate calculations, to understand how formulas, processes, and mathematical tools are used in the real world. It is useful for students to solve biomedical problems with the computer within the Statistical Inference, collect statistical data through Excel, or perform a statistical survey by visiting the official ISTAT Italian website for example.
Today, the Internet at school is therefore a very powerful knowledge tool for our students. However, I think there is a need for an ever-supervised use by the teachers for the conscious use of search engines by students.

# data[].attributes.body
Our students are born in the world of technology, but they use it in the wrong way, in most cases. We need to teach them how to use them in the right way, depending on subjects, their age and skills, to facilitate learning.

For effective teaching, it is necessary to develop more effective methods where the student is no longer only a user, but becomes the protagonist of the training process by creating, selecting and elaborating experiences in a personal way. The student becomes an active builder of knowledge based on his own interests and giving meaning to the activities proposed, integrating them in a personal way. The basis for this is the study and improvement of teaching activity that can be achieved using ICT tools: Facebook, e-book, Lim, Youtube, apps that make learning more fun and more motivated students.

Digital instruments are an integral part of teen life. All their day at home and at school is marked by the use of lim, tablet, and smartphone. The guys are constantly connected by changing modes and connection channels depending on their travels: for sure smartphone is the most used tool because it is always at your fingertips and is a tool full of potential because through the apps opens up a world of potentiality. Even at school with LIM, digital devices have altered the approach to the study at least in part: the lim is a tool that allows for greater ease of content communication, greater involvement, clarity and ease of comprehension. school are used every day from all disciplines. In addition, the network allows you to deepen arguments or prepare tasks in the classroom; the boys have more collaboration with their companions in carrying out their home study activities. The network is also used for reading newspapers and publishing their own writings and multimedia presentations of individual or group work

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that in order to achieve good results, new technologies must be well integrated with other teaching and learning strategies. They are certainly a great way to attract students' attention, motivate them and also to encourage those pupils who learn a lot through images, colours. In addition, the use of technology makes it possible to educate pupils in the conscious use of computers, the internet and smartphones. Many of them, despite the fact that they are surrounded by technology, do not even know how to turn on the computer, do some research on the internet, knowing how to discriminate the source of the news. As a result, I think it is very important to introduce technology into the teaching process, in the most appropriate ways and timescales for educating people to use it responsibly and risk-free.

Digital tehnologies

My teaching was much easier last year when I had the opportunity to use smart board. I taught about circle and parallel and vertical lines. Because of the tools on Smart I could change and draw lines, circulars, radius etc. Much quicker and because of the possibilities od changing colours they could see many examples in short time. The rest of the time I could use for correcting individualy my students in drawing, measuring and holding their drawing suplies.

Digital tools are useful as long as they are used with measure. They stimulate student creativity, make the learner more fun and more efficient. I used Kahoot to evaluate the knowledge gained by students during the day. Students turned the test into a competition where everyone wanted to be the first, all of them got involved in resolving the test.

I think that computers used well are a great tool in teaching math but I do find it hard to imagine only using them and not teaching computation without a major shift in the mindset of the government and curriculum writers as well. We are expected to have students that can compute a certain amount of material by hand and standardized tests assess this also. A curriculum shift or mindset switch from people with more power in how math is taught and assessed would help to be able to use technology more in the way that he says. I do think that there are lots of great ways that we can use the technology now and that there needs to be more real world math put into our way of teaching though.

In my opinion, the best model is to “blend” learning, combine technology with hands on or paper based teaching.
I definitetly think that a good teacher should find the right way to show his students the use of these instruments and should integrate the use of concrete objects with virtual reality.
I love technologies and I use it at school (even if we have poor equipments), but I'm really afraid of the effects that they could have on young brains.

Advantages:
When well-used, they enable meaningful learnind; students can interact with more interest in seeking  by knowledge by constructing their teaching learning process.

Disadvantages:

Improper use due to lack of training and/or information of teachers; excessive use of technology, very appealing to students, leads them to reject traditional education; the student’s tendency to accommodate and conforms to passively receive what the technology offers him.

In my opinion the quality of the class will depend on the quality of the teacher and not the presence of technology…

# data[].attributes.body
I usually use technology in my classroom lessons.

Blended learning to learn the best.But besides that, I use technology to attract children's attention.
Some of my students do not have computers and internet.
Then it is difficult.Technology is not always enough.
Some students need to do more.
Technology is easier to assess.
While the course is being processed, you need to learn by living a part of the students.Then the technology is inadequate.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, the best model is to “blend” learning, combine technology with hands on or paper based teaching.
Students will get the most out of a lesson if technology is used only when it enhances the lesson, not dominates it. Practicing concepts by hand on paper is irreplaceable in the math classroom. It’s not only a more effective means of showing the work, it is also more effective for student retention. The connections the brain makes when the hands are writing is stronger than it is with technology.

I completely agree with Wolfram's opinion!
The importance of calculus in Maths teaching is obsolete.
What's the meaning of being able to solve a system in two linear equations if you don't know how to solve a choice problem between to options modeled by linear equations? I think that Maths teaching should be updated, in order to stress problem solving and limiting the complexity of the calculus, since nowadays we have computers that do it.
In this perspective computers and devices help a lot. For example, I ask students to use their devices both for Physics experiments and for Maths' modeling.

I believe that correctly using computers is the “silver bullet” for making math education work. When used appropriately, digital technologies can be extremely powerful in facilitating learning through engagement, differentiation, collaboration, application and socialization.

# data[].attributes.body
In the 21st century students are digital natives as they grow up using technologies. They are familiar with the digital environment and they are used to work with applications. I can see that they learn better and faster using technology as it gives them the opportunity to use the skills they are good at. I sometimes observe that students are bored when the teaching happens using only the board and chalk as there is nothing hi-tech they can relate to.

But on the other hand, using too much technology leads to develop technology-addicted people. It can be a downside now, but I am not sure if it will be a downside in the future. Personally, I like using technology, but of course, not in all my lessons.

Our students are born in a digital word and technologies are always there in their life (for example smartphone), so using digital technologies in Maths can help students to see Math more interesting.

Reasons for using digital technologies in the Maths classroom
Digital technologies can help us to be more accurate in drawing mathematical objects such as figures, functions... Sometimes we do it on the blackboard and students have to imagine what we  want to represent exactly. However, with this technology we can do it properly.

What are some of the downsides or dangers of using digital technologies in our Maths classroom?
Technology is sometimes used in the classroom for no educational purpose because it is easy to entertain students with technology. In addition, even using it for educational purposes, if the technology we are using is not well known, we will lose a lot of time. Therefore it is important to know the technology and to program well our work.

 The computer is extremely useful because:

• stimulates complex processes and phenomena that no other teaching tool can put so well on. Thus, through it, pupils are offered, modeling, justifications and illustrations of abstract concepts, illustrations of processes and phenomena unobservable or difficult to observe for various reasons.

• emphasizes pupils' participation, gives the learner an active role in the learning process;

• students work at their own pace;

• learning is individualized, not standardized;

• stimulates interest in the new;

• stimulates the development of imagination;

• Some processes can be simulated on the screen, situations that are difficult (or even impossible) to obtain with the help of traditional resources;

• allows the objective assessment of the student's results and progress.

They are two tip of maths: Traditional math and Modern math. In traditional math learning are concentrate in learning from the teacher, in modern math teacher are just facilitator. Teacher can use technology for many reason in math classroom. They can use many links, but sometime  pupils can be lost in links. For eliminate this thinks teacher can create his/her one links which  will be used in classroom.

The use of computer technology makes traditional math lessons bright and interesting. In these lessons, each student works actively, students develop curiosity, cognitive interest. The computer allows you to enhance the motivation of learning through the student's active dialogue with the computer, the variety and colorfulness of information (text + sound + color + animation), by orienting learning to success (allows you to bring a solution to any task based on the necessary tooltip); using the game form of communication with the car and, importantly, endurance, calm and "friendliness" of the machine in relation to the student.

Using digital technologies in the Maths classroom is a one-way road nowadays, since they allow educators to experiment more in their pedagogy and offer countless resources to students, making learning more fun and effective. We do live in a digital world, after all! However, technology can be a distraction too, especially in crowded classrooms. Another downside could be the fact that students do not have equal access to technological resources. All in all, educators are the ones who play the most important part in the success of ICT use in their class!!

I think digital technology helps us being up to date on what's going around in our time and
allow us to use a modern way to teach "old fashion knowledge"! As technology in youngsters'
life becomes a must i believe maths should incorporate (when applicable) new ways to deliver
their message!

# data[].attributes.body
I  think that the additional value of technology is that it can help young students to get abstract ideas catching their interest.
Moreover it allows teachers to spend more time to logical and critical aspects of Maths and this is priceless.
It allows to share ideas, to review constantly your work, to work as a team even if you are not in the same place too.
But I also think that spend too much time using technologies could be dangerous because a massive use of them leave people feeling alienated.
Kids learn manipulating real things, not only imagine.

I use ICT in Maths, it a great opportunity to have a diversity. The Maths classes are sometimes boring, lined.... the computer games for maths allowed to solve a real life problem by using pictures,

I mostly agree with the ideas in the video. I think that students spend a lot of time calculating things that can be solved in a few seconds by a computer and in real life nobody do calculations by hand. I think that they should know how to calculate anyway but the focus hasn´t be there. We have to take courage and make changes! We have to jump! Education needs a change and is in our hands.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that digital technology should always be used in combination with doing things per hand in the math classroom so that the students get to know technologies as tools that help solve complex problems which cannot be done by hand so easily. Nevertheless, they should always know what the tool does and how it works!

# data[].attributes.body
An adding reason on how digital technologies can help us teach Maths to our students is the fact that technologies help teachers to personalize theaching and learning belong to students' learning styles.

In my opinion a downsides of using technologies in our Maths classroom is that it can be dispersive, because when you are online you find so many resourses and link that you can lost your main objective.

# data[].attributes.body
For me the main reason to use digital technologies for Math is to transform an abstract idea or concept to a concrete one. For example, when talking about volumes (a 3 dimensional object) it is hard to imagine it or visualize it in a blackboard or a paper (a 2 dimensional object). Another reason is that our current world (and the future one) are digital.
In the theme of downsides: the lack of digital skills in some teachers, their reluctance to change their teaching ways, that some schools doesn't have access to digital tools and that to include digital tools there has to be a previous and careful planning to really take advantage of them (meaning more time that sometimes is not paid).

# data[].attributes.body
Maths class is usually  difficult and boring for most students, but educators can use digital technology to boost student performance  and make Math class fun and exciting . Using technology in an educational environment not only better reflects children’s life outside the classroom, but also allows them to improve their digital skills in a way that will continue to be valuable throughout their adult life. On the  teacher' s side,  technologies is the best  way to evaluate and increase individual achievement and personalise lessons.The drawback is, however, that sometimes students , as native digitals, prove to be better than teachers and  educators, at times, feel frustrated and demotivated. Therefore a proper teacher training on new technologies should be carried out in all schools as long life learning. An example of an activity which is  really appreciated by students is

Games based learning. It is a different  approach to learning through games. Math students can explore  concepts and do  fun activities  at the same time. This is the case of videogames. When they are employed  in the classroom, these digital solutions can reinvigorate tedious exercises and keep students engaged in math class.

# data[].attributes.body
The technology is good as it is used with measure and with great skill. In this regard, we teachers should be trained and try to keep up with the emergence of new technologies. I tried to use kohoot for evaluation but the students were not familiar and finally took everything in the game. Just in the play.

Using ICT in maths education is a toolkit to make maths accessible and more attractive to nowadays students who are very familiar using technology. But in my opinion we have not to be focused using technology but we have to ispire ouy students to use their imagination beyond technology. We also have to give them the chance to have humman collaboration instead of e - collaboration in order to improve their communication skills. Maths is a universal language that connects people extend their horizons.

I think it's very important to try to incorporate digital technologies in our teaching in general and in Maths in particular. Teaching and learning cannot be the same in a fast-changing world where ICT has become the order of the day in all parts of life. I can recognize the benefits of teaching with the aid of ICT but I would like to make a few points: Can we use technology to the same extent across the age levels (i.e. at pres-school education, high schoo)?How well-prepared are we as teachers to make the most of technology in our teaching? Can we teach everything using technology or are there particular math subjects that are better facilitated with the use of ICT? Using technology doesn't make us necessarily better teachers. I think that the tools and the content to be taught must be very well selected so as not to deprive our students of such skills as collaboration, discussion, analysis synthesis, argumentation etc.

# data[].attributes.body
ICT have the potential to transform fundamentally the way we learn and teach math by representing abstract mathematical concepts in many different formats (multimodal), by facilitating the collaboration and teamwork between our students (social skills), by providing instant feedback, by making individual learning feasible (personalization), by making calculations an easy task, by engaging every student to revise his or her learning outcomes and to provide feedback to other students (metacognition), by helping teachers to differentiate their instruction and deliver their lectures in a digital format (audio, video, text) easy sharable and accessible 24/7 through every digital device in and outside the school premises. However, digital learning is a relatively new field and as it said we have gone so far, a long way to digital and only a few steps to learning. Nevertheless, ICT are a set of tools which can easily enhance the traditional behaviorist teacher-centered approach where students compete one another and then are rewarded or punished. Therefore, I argue that, once again the role of the human factor in the educational scene is of a paramount importance. Poorly educated teachers on how to use in a pedagogical informed way the new technologies are the biggest challenge nowadays for the educational systems across the globe. Arguably, educational technology, like any other technology, has never had something inherently bad or good.

# data[].attributes.body
As for me, there are further reasons to use IT which were not evidently outlined in the presentation. They mainly attain to  metacognition and could be resumed as follows:
1) IT tools are usually percieved as "friendly stuff" by younger people, since they are mainly connected to ludic experiences in students' daily life. That is why IT tools may improve the learners' confidence about understanding Maths: the principle is "if it is a screen to show it, then anybody is able to get it!"
2) IT tools are highly socialising and they enhance communication and content sharing. This aspect is extremely motivating for students.
3) If part of a work is carried out with a computer, then students believe they have to endure less work. A misconception of this latter aspect is the only risk I can fancy.

# data[].attributes.body
The use of technology is important for our students, because it facilitates learning but it is even more important to accustom them to critical thinking and logical

# data[].attributes.body
Technology must become an integral part of our teaching. By now the boys are immersed in technology, they are involved with it and we must use it in the most appropriate way to involve students in the educational process, especially in math education in this case.

# data[].attributes.body
Using ICT in the classroom means rethinking the lesson and asking the teachers to change the methodology and the way to communicate with the students. To do this, its important that teachers possess the skills necessary to read and produce digital content. But it is also important that the teacher is never set aside for new technologies and above all that students do not become passive subjects.

Probably there are many reasons because the technology is used. I thinks my students has to enhance their calculation abilities or,  at any rate, make a valutation. I use the technology for attract their attention.

I believe in technology and use of computer, but I believe that it's important to help students to visualize and summarize also with a paper and a pencil.
I used flux diagrams to show that a procedure to solve a real problem is similar to a procedure to solve a math problem: I love the computational thinking. I receive students in the middle school that can be entusiast to use technology and I try to follow their interests, but also I think it's important to traine brain, to force the ability to link fenomena and data and use the logic.

I personally feel the need to constantly renew the way I do didactics and I have found that the digital tool allows me to optimize the resources available, to capture and keep my students' attention high, to realize real cooperative learning without never substitute for the role of the teacher.
Digital is an extra tool that allows you to optimize the expected results in an effective teaching activity.
Digital is  an activator of interactions to keep the level of attention high
Digital qualitative feedback becomes an indispensable ally: it allows kids to share ideas, notes and tips quickly, provides the teacher the possibility of an overview. I think of another practical and very frequent case: a teacher who, halfway through an explanation, wants to have the wrist of the situation and figure out if her twenty-five students follow or think of their own facts. Here digital is very useful because it allows - for example, an instant correction test of a few question.

It is important to evaluate, at a time, when it is useful to use technology. It happens to me that in Edmodo some students give overlapping tasks from others.Sometimes students do not understand such a concept, and sometimes they react very well to this kind of teaching.

I teach young students and I think using technology in excess could be dangerous at this stage because children need to manipulate, to work with objects and materials in order to understand concepts and develop basic mathematical skills as calculation, for example.
