The purpose of the study is:
 To examine the efficacy of using a digital technologies app
(Wolfram Alpha) as a pedagogical tool for teaching students to
plot quadratic equations.
 An experimental design used.
 Control group (no tech) and Experimental group (tech)
 Traditional classroom approach and Wolfram Alpha app.
Advantages use of technology:
 Technology has had a powerful role in educational
advantages such as ubiquity, portability, and
flexibility for collaborative learning projects (Park,
2008).
 Technology can enhance educational quality, make
learning and teaching more engaging, and provide
access to real life applications of the subject (Attard &
Curry, 2012; Souter, 2001; Henderson & Yeow, 2012).
 Mobile devices as powerful tools
Disadvantages use of technology:
 Lack of experience
 Technical problems
 Cost of technological tools is expensive
(Meche, Ross, and Vincent, 2002; Merrill, 2001; Henderson & Yeow,
2012; Franklin & Peng, 2008 ).
 Wolfram Alpha can be accessed independently on smart
phones, tablets or computers (Dimiceli, Lang, Locke, 2010).
 Easy to calculate mathematical equation as a computation
engine
 Easy to draw parabolic graphs.
A set of power point slides which contained:
 Real time applications of quadratic equations
 Stepwise Derivation of the Quadratic Formula
 Sample Solution for a given quadratic equation
 Sample Graph for a given quadratic equation
Practice Test:
 Four questions to identify the correct graph (out of four options) for a
given quadratic equation
 Three questions to solve for the roots of quadratic equations
Posttest:
 Three questions to solve a quadratic equation
 Two questions to plot a quadratic equation on a graph
 One worded problem to check if they could translate their knowledge of
quadratic equation to solve a real time problem

PRE PCT PST
Mean Scores of Control & Experimental Groups
Control Experiment
 We found a significant difference between the scores of the
practice tests between the control PCTc (M ± SD:
35.4188±39.27758) and experimental PCTe (M ± SD:
80.9571±22.41787) groups, ind.(13) =-2.699, p=.018, d=-
1.39695.
 From this comparison we can draw two conclusions:
 Both methods appear to be equally as effective as determined
from the final scores
 While the app helps students perform better on tests, their
performance suffers without it
 The app does not help the students to better understand the
material; it merely reduces mistakes and time required
 Small Sample Size. Hence, findings cannot be
generalized to a broader community.
 Participants had less amount of time to
familiarize with the app.
 Two back to back Math related studies may
have induced a mental fatigue among
participants.

Advantages use of technology:  Technology has had a powerful role in educational advantages such as ubiquity, portability, and flexibility for collaborative learning projects (Park, 2008).  Technology can enhance educational quality, make learning and teaching more engaging, and provide access to real life applications of the subject (Attard & Curry, 2012; Souter, 2001; Henderson & Yeow, 2012).  Mobile devices as powerful tools
  • 4. Disadvantages use of technology:  Lack of experience  Technical problems  Cost of technological tools is expensive (Meche, Ross, and Vincent, 2002; Merrill, 2001; Henderson & Yeow, 2012; Franklin & Peng, 2008 ).
  • 5.  Wolfram Alpha can be accessed independently on smart phones, tablets or computers (Dimiceli, Lang, Locke, 2010).  Easy to calculate mathematical equation as a computation engine  Easy to draw parabolic graphs.
  • 6. A set of power point slides which contained:  Real time applications of quadratic equations  Stepwise Derivation of the Quadratic Formula  Sample Solution for a given quadratic equation  Sample Graph for a given quadratic equation
  • 7. Practice Test:  Four questions to identify the correct graph (out of four options) for a given quadratic equation  Three questions to solve for the roots of quadratic equations Posttest:  Three questions to solve a quadratic equation  Two questions to plot a quadratic equation on a graph  One worded problem to check if they could translate their knowledge of quadratic equation to solve a real time problem

  • 9.  We found a significant difference between the scores of the practice tests between the control PCTc (M ± SD: 35.4188±39.27758) and experimental PCTe (M ± SD: 80.9571±22.41787) groups, ind.(13) =-2.699, p=.018, d=- 1.39695.  From this comparison we can draw two conclusions:  Both methods appear to be equally as effective as determined from the final scores  While the app helps students perform better on tests, their performance suffers without it  The app does not help the students to better understand the material; it merely reduces mistakes and time required
  • 10.  Small Sample Size. Hence, findings cannot be generalized to a broader community.  Participants had less amount of time to familiarize with the app.  Two back to back Math related studies may have induced a mental fatigue among participants.
