Evaluation of a Mentor Teacher Model for Enhancing Mathematics Instruction through the Use of Computers

摘要: AbstractThirty-nine middle- and high-school mathematics teachers, located in 33 different New Jersey schools 14 districts, were trained the effective use of computer-based technologies for teaching mathematics. These 39 teachers also supported as mentor who worked with 212 mentee during Year 3 project. Thus, program affected a total 251 classrooms. In classrooms where became regular users computer technology instruction, greater student-centered methods that employed cooperative-learning problem-solving activities was observed.
