The Effects of Desmos and TI-83 Plus Graphing Calculators on the Problem-solving Confidence of Middle and High School Mathematics Students

Book Description
As technology in education continues to improve, research is necessary to assess the impact it is having on students’ confidence in the way students solve mathematics problems. The purpose of this quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control-group comparison study is to examine the impact the Desmos graphing calculator has on the problem-solving confidence of middle school and high school students as compared to students who use a TI-83 Plus graphing calculator while controlling for students’ math achievement scores. The students (N = 146) participating in this study were learning their respective mathematics material for an equivalent period of 12 weeks in order to determine whether students who used the Desmos calculator experienced a statistically significant difference in problem-solving confidence levels. Students in both groups took the assessment at the end of the 12-week period of learning and an Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test whether there was a significant difference in the scores of the Problem Solving Inventory (PSI). Results indicate that there was a statistically significant difference in problem-solving confidence scores between middle and high school students who used the Desmos graphing calculator as compared to students who used a TI-83 Plus graphing calculator, while controlling for student math achievement scores.

Book Description
This book highlights the effect of using scientific calculators in Mathematics instruction and establish if they have any effect on students' achievement. The researcher was prompted by continuous poor performance in mathematics and yet it is a core subject in the school curriculum. There has been creation of various devices aimed at helping learners to get solutions to mathematical problems starting from counting sticks, abacus, slide rule, mathematical tables and scientific calculators in that order but no tangible evidence to show that scientific calculators will solve the problem in mathematics. Scientific calculators can be more effective than mathematical tables in improving students' achievement in mathematics and enhancing positive students' attitudes and motivation towards the subject. Scientific calculators can provide a point of departure to move away from the predominant expository teaching that gives the students very few opportunities to develop practical skills necessary for negotiating meanings, be creative and effectively participate in learning. It can also improve impoverished situation of mathematics instruction in secondary schools.
The Effect of Using Calculators on Students' Construction of Mathematical Knowledge

Book Description
The purpose of this study was to determine what impact the use of calculators has on children's construction of mathematical knowledge in the researcher's second grade classroom. Calculators were purchased in volume by this school system. Most teachers have not been trained to use the calculators in their classrooms. Therefore, students were only allowed to use them in checking computation. Some teachers did not allow their students to use them at all. With so much controversial information about using calculators with young children, this study was created to determine if the calculator was a learning tool or a handicap that hindered the acquisition of mathematical knowledge. The specific question guiding this research was "What impact did using calculators have on students' problem solving?".
