Abstract Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) can provide rich learning opportunities in classroom teaching, which requires teachers’ effective instrumental orchestrations. However, there is a lack of research regarding the development In this study, we designed implemented professional course, aiming to explore whether course could change preservice mathematics To end, an analytical framework orchestrations within GeoGebra environment was established. Data were collected from Chinese teachers, including videotapes their simulated lessons, files, written documents, self-reflections, online speaking, etc. results, three participants’ changes presented as main cases. It found that types did not change, but frequencies those increased significantly. The didactical configurations mainly reflected layout GeoGebra, exploitation modes manifested techniques teachers use management tasks. addition, it revealed theoretical support (instrumental approach), technical (knowledge about using GeoGebra), community (“Same Content Different Designs” activity communicating discussing with others) useful elements inviting regard, study contributes providing promising be used teacher training so improve

Interactive learning objects (ILOs) are tools that can enhance and promote teaching in various fields of knowledge. For instance, GeoGebra is free educational software designed for mathematics. It interactive mathematical help students better understand accounting concepts visualize complex financial relationships, making it easier to learn abstract concepts. Additionally, be used explore what-if scenarios, which develop their decision-making skills. The purpose this article investigate the impact on development skills among science students. contributes literature by demonstrating effectiveness through application five linear functions relationships GeoGebra. This approach bridges gap between differential calculus knowledge ability achieve a geometric understanding interpretation lines created with dynamic software. also enables statement based variations lines. GeoGebra, software, will feature comprehensive income (CIS) as one its relevant statements accounting. Starting an equation containing 15 variables, 2 selected represent abscissa ordinate axes, while remaining 13 considered parameters adjusted user OIA windows. By changing these values, produce straight line. worth noting using effective strategy enhancing one’s basic sciences. study emphasizes significance accuracy management, interplay utilization technological aid comprehending
