Transition from realistic to real world problems with the use of technology in elementary mathematical education

 

Natalija Budinski, Dragica Milinkovic

 

Abstract: The availability of technology has a big impact on education, and that is the main reason for discussing the use of technologies in mathematical education in our paper. The availability of technology influences how mathematical contents could be presented to students. We present the benefits of learning mathematical concepts through real life situations in elementary mathematical education. Particularly, we will analyze classroom examples which will give students a clearer picture of the connection between the real world and learned mathematics. For that purpose we will use technology in the form of Geogebra.

              Key words: mathematical education, Geogebra, technology
