6th Grade Students’ Views about Mathematical Teaching Based on Technology Integration

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the opinions of 6th grade students towards teaching applications developed on
the basis of Planning-Practicing-Evaluation model which is an ICT integration model for effective mathematics
teaching. While teaching process was designed, Moodle which is a learning management system was used in order to
use teaching applications together in a systematic and planned way. Throughout the teaching process, ICT resources
such as interactive board, computer, GeoGebra dynamic geometry software, web 2.0 tools (digital stories, videos,
animations, games) were used. 33 sixth grade students participated in the research. The case study of qualitative
research methods was used in the study. Students' opinions on teaching practices were collected through
semi-structured interview method. The obtained data were analyzed by content analysis. As a result, it was
determined that the students expressed their opinions towards learning practices increases comprehensibility of the
subjects, provides learning opportunities by make and experience, develops positive attitude towards mathematics
teaching, attractive and interesting, they associate daily life with mathematics and increases the desire to participate
lessons with having catchy lessons.
