Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is a well-known fact that mathematics is always difficult, due to the fact that students have a lack of motivation and also the intrinsic difficulty associated with mathematical concepts. In this way, new trends to improve the teaching–learning process have been introduced in recent years by many researchers in this area.
On the one hand, with the inclusion of different applications, tools (ICT) and also the internet, some problems related to mathematics learning have been studied, since they allow teachers and professors to deliver a much more dynamic and meaningful learning process than with traditional media.
On the other hand, the model of online learning has been growing in recent times, which gives us another new way to modify teaching techniques, according to societal demands, which allows autocorrection that students can use in any place with their phones or tablets, especially in high school and university.
In this Special Issue, we want to provide the opportunity to share several techniques and experiences in mathematics education at those levels in which students can take advantage of these kinds of teaching–learning methods and tools.
The topics of this Special Issue are related to the teaching of mathematics:
- New techniques in teaching mathematics using e-Learning or other nonconventional techniques
- Experiences with apps used in the learning process of mathematics
- Tools developed for the improvement of the meaningful learning of mathematical concepts
- Online learning experiences
- Changes in the education of mathematics during the COVID-19 pandemic
- New ways of teaching mathematics
- Innovative techniques in the classroom
- Online alternatives to manipulative materials
- User experiences in the classroom
- LMS usage to teach mathematics
- Comparative studies of virtual and nonvirtual experiences
