ABSTRACT The past decade has been characterized by a strong global trend towards the adoption of Learning Management Systems (LMS) in the educational environment. Saudi Arabia has recently invested in the digitization of education. Taking the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as a starting point, this study sought to understand the knowledge and early experiences of Saudi high school teachers with a particular LMS, called Future Gate. Qualitative in-depth interviews with 20 Saudi high school teachers were thematically analyzed. Findings suggest that high school teachers are well-informed about Future Gate and its purpose and have mostly positive perceptions of this LMS. Yet, some limitations exist, including unfamiliarity, lack of infrastructure, technical issues, and quality-related concerns. The findings are valuable because they can inform both educational leaders and software developers on how to improve and facilitate the use of LMS.

This research (the second part of a 2-part study) sought to investigate selected high school teachers’ knowledge and use of a problem solving approach to mathematics teaching and learning. It also examined the challenges that they experienced in implementing this pedagogical approach. A survey research design was used for this research whereby data were collected using a questionnaire with closed- and open-ended items. Thirty-one high school teachers from Jamaica participated in the study. The findings indicated that the teachers generally used a problem solving approach during instruction very regularly and felt extremely competent when using the approach. Some of the most frequently reported challenges included students’ lack of interest and tenacity in solving problems; teachers’ heavy workload; and the time consuming nature of the approach. One key recommendation to address the challenges raised is implementation of professional development for teachers to guide them in effectively incorporating problem solving as a teaching/learning approach in the mathematics classroom.

A book on matrix algebra authored by able students in grades 10-12 was the result of a teaching-learning experiment in an NSF Summer Institute in Mathematics for High School Teachers. The experiment might serve as a model for classroom and/or laboratory activities at any grade level and with different ability groups.

RESUMO:Este estudo tem como objetivo compreender a importância da formação contínua dos professores do Ensino Médio do CESEC (Centro Estadual de Educação Continuada) Augusta Raquel da Silveira, em Lagamar-MG, como uma forma de possibilitar a adoção de novas tecnologias, especificamente o Tablet Educacional, em suas propostas pedagógicas. Como método de trabalho, escolheu-se a pesquisa-ação. Assim, por meio da implantação de três ações – formação técnica, formação pedagógica e elaboração e desenvolvimento de um plano de aula utilizando o aparelho – foi possível apresentar aos professores da instituição conhecimentos técnicos e pedagógicos referentes ao manuseio do tablet, além de proporcionar a aplicação prática do aparelho, com as devidas orientações e suporte, na rotina educacional de cada profissional. A partir do desenvolvimento das ações, foi construído e sistematizado um conjunto de saberes inerentes ao Tablet Educacional, que contribuíram para que os professores conhecessem a relevância da sua utilização, de modo a usufruírem suas possibilidades e recursos que subsidiam, de forma significativa, o trabalho docente e o processo de ensino-aprendizagem.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: tecnologias na educação; formação de professores; formação contínua de professores. ABSTRACT:The present study aimed at understanding the importance of continuing development of CESEC’s (State Center of Continuing Education) Augusta Raquel da Silveira High School teachers in Lagamar, in the state of Minas Gerais, as a form of enabling the adoption of new technologies, especially the Educational Tablet, to their pedagogical purposes. The action-research was chosen as the method of work. Thus, through the implementation of three actions – technical training, pedagogical training, and elaboration and development of a lesson plan using the Educational Tablet –, it was possible to present to the school teachers technical and pedagogical knowledge about the tablet, promoting its practical use with the necessary guidance and support for their educational routine. From the development of the actions, a body of knowledge concerning the Educational Tablet was constructed and systematized, which contributed for the teachers to get to know it and understand how relevant it is to employ it so as to explore its possibilities and resources that significantly subsidize the teaching work and the teaching-learning process. KEYWORDS: technology in education; teacher development; continuing teacher development.
