[br][br][/color][/b]Learning Strategies and Intergration of Technology[br][br][b][color=#666666]By using their tablet PCs, students are asked to follow the instructions they are given and reach the steps specified. To guarantee that there will not be any problems, the software [i]Geogebra[/i] is downloaded in all tablet PCs in advance. [/color][/b][br][br][br][br]

[b][br]How did you implement your lesson plan?[/b][br][br]That each and every student had a tablet PC made it easier for me to conduct the lesson. [i]Geogebra[/i][br]application had been installed into students’ tablet PCs in advance. Students were given a sheet explaining what they were supposed to do. The instructions on the sheet were followed step by step and some specific features were discovered. [br][br][b]Do you think you could implement the technology in class properly? [/b][br][br]I did my best in using technology. It was the students’ first time to meet [i]Geogebra[/i]. We had some[br]difficulties at first, but the more students got used to using the application, the more enjoyable the experience turned out to be. [br][br][br][b]Do you think your students accomplished the outcomes of the lesson?[/b][br][br]I could see my students accomplished the course objectives because, after their experience with the program, I realized they could answer the questions I posed to them at the end of the course. [br][br][b]What do your students think about the course?[/b][br][br]The students expressed that they did enjoy the class and they had no idea how time flew so fast. They also added that they wished they would always have a chance of seeing the enjoyable and exploratory aspects[br]of mathematics.[br][br][b]What sort of changes could be made so that your method will work better? [/b][br][br]If I conduct this method in groups, I believe I will have a better chance of having a more effective class. For this experience, I conducted the class in a more crowded group, and it made it a little difficult for me to[br]sustain control in class.
