LEARNING WITH TECHNOLOGY : SIMILARITIES IN MATHEMATICS & WRITING

In this paper, we will identify similarities in the learning and the creative process using technology in mathematics and writing at the college level and draw a parallel. Specifically, we will examine the parallel on learning symbolic representations at different levels with special attention to how controversial technologies--such as numeric, graphic, and symbolic calculators in math or word processors, spell checkers, grammar checkers, and graphic organizers in writing--help learning. We identify comparable learning variables in writing and mathematics using a theoretical model. Finally, we present specific parallel examples in solving problems in mathematics and in the writing process using technology.
