How does OAME/AOEM support, promote and enhance the use of technology in classrooms in ways that are pedagogically sound, equitable, responsive, and reflect the ever-changing nature of technology?
OAME has had a group of people (thanks, people!) ponder this and through considerable research, debate, collaboration, writing and editing have produced a position statement.
Read the whole Position Statement here: Link
TL;dr? Digital technology has an important role in math education when it is used to support but not replace student thinking, helping students build conceptual understanding, confidence, communication, and giving teachers tools to differentiate instruction, engage learners, and promote academic honesty. OAME's view is that technology use must be intentional, equitable, and ethical with proper teacher training and access for all students. We at OAME commit to modelling responsible use of tools including AI in Ontario math education.
