Technological environments and its influence in Mathematical Working Spaces

Abstract This work analyzes the influence of technologically rich environments on Mathematical Working Spaces (MWS). In particular, it aims to show how the use of technology fosters, on one hand, changes in the role adopted by agents of the teaching-learning processes, and, on the other hand, the arising of shared MWS. Using observational methodology and collaborative work on problem solving as a didactical strategy with student teachers, we shall illustrate: (a) how the interactivity with an i-activity and the use of asynchronous communication tools influences the construction of shared MWS; and (b) how the i-activity and the students partially take the instructor's role in the management of Personal and shared MWS, aided by digital technology.

摘要 本研究分析技术丰富环境对数学工作空间（Mathematical Working Spaces，MWS）的影响。具体而言，本研究旨在阐明技术应用如何从两方面推动教学过程中各参与主体的角色转变，并催生共享型数学工作空间。本研究采用观察研究法，将问题解决协作活动作为面向实习师范生的教学策略，以此阐释：（a）与交互式活动（i-activity）的交互以及异步通信工具的使用，如何影响共享型数学工作空间的构建；（b）在数字技术的辅助下，学生如何部分承担指导者在个人型与共享型数学工作空间管理中的角色。
