This project will investigate the potential of combining the representational innovations of SimCalc in the core mathematics of change with the new affordances of wireless Classroom Connectivity (CC). An intense program of exploration has yielded dramatic new forms of classroom activity structures that offer students newly participatory ways to be mathematical in group and classroom activities, and teachers flexible new pedagogies that, together, may point the way to standard classroom practice of the future when CC is common. Student participation structures and attention are newly manipulable, and teacher ability to manage the interplay between individual learning/cognition and public social participation is likewise enhanced, especially through the teacher's ability to selectively aggregate, manipulate and publicly display individual or group constructions, as well as rebroadcast objects to the class for further investigation and new cycles of harvest, aggregation display and discussion. Two streams of inquiry are proposed: Stream 1 is convergent and systematically experimental on stable technologies in sets of common teaching experiments, producing carefully developed evidence on participation, teaching, learning and relations among them, and new instrumentation that enables researchers to measure/compare forms and levels of participation in CC contexts and potentially relate these to teacher characteristics. Stream 2, continuing the invention and exploration of the prior project, consists of three sub-streams, systematically, but opportunistically, exploiting the expanding affordances of evolving technologies to explore (a) new participation structures, (b) the growth in teacher capacity to use CC productively, both as individuals and as members of peer communities, and (c) dynamic representational supports for effective teacher understanding and use of CC.

该项目将研究SimCalc在核心数学变化中的代表性创新与无线教室连接（CC）的新功能相结合的潜力。一个激烈的探索计划产生了戏剧性的新形式的课堂活动结构，为学生提供新的参与方式是数学的小组和课堂活动，教师灵活的新的教学方法，在一起，可能会指出未来的标准课堂实践时，CC是常见的。学生的参与结构和注意力是新的可操纵的，教师管理个人学习/认知和公众社会参与之间的相互作用的能力也得到了增强，特别是通过教师的能力，有选择地聚集，操纵和公开显示个人或团体的建设，以及转播对象类进一步调查和新的周期的收获，聚集显示和讨论。 两个流的调查建议：流1是收敛和系统的实验稳定的技术，在一套常见的教学实验，生产精心开发的证据参与，教学，学习和它们之间的关系，和新的仪器，使研究人员能够测量/比较形式和水平的参与CC上下文中，并可能与这些教师的特点。流2，继续先前项目的发明和探索，由三个子流组成，系统地，但机会主义地，利用不断发展的技术的不断扩大的可供性来探索（a）新的参与结构，（B）教师作为个人和同伴社区成员有效使用CC的能力的增长，动态表征支持教师有效理解和使用CC。
