Presented article deals with students' opinion on involving tablets in mathematics lessons and shows how the opinion on using tablets is changing after a one-year implementation. The study held over one school year and explored ten classes (over 260 students) with two different teachers in two different charter schools in USA.
The study employed qualitative methods. The article highlights findings from input and output questionnaires, observations and interviews, which took place in order to find out about using tablets in mathematics lessons.
From the article you can learn whether students like or dislike using tablets in mathematics classes and what aspects can influence their attitude. The paper studies positives and negatives in using of tablets in class and also highlight some important points for implementation of the technology in schools.
Findings indicate that students are very excited and motivated at the beginning of the year, however this motivation decrease through the year. My research showed that for great part of students, technical problems prevail over other advantages of tablets and after continuing technical issues most of the students have negative feelings about using tablets in class.
