Volume 22 Issue 1 - Fostering students' development of the concept of
angles using technology
- Abstract: Richardson, Sue Ellen; Koyunkaya, Melike Yigit
  The use of dynamic geometry environments, such as GeoGebra, can support students' development of geometric concepts. Tasks and investigative ideas for the development of the concept of angle are shared.

Volume 22 Issue 1 - What do they understand?: Using technology to
facilitate formative assessment
- Abstract: Jacobbe, Tim; Mitten, Carolyn; Jacobbe, Elizabeth
  Formative assessment is so important to inform teachers' planning. A discussion of the benefits of using technology to facilitate formative assessment explains how four primary school teachers adopted three different apps to make their formative assessment more meaningful and useful.

Volume 22 Issue 1 - Children's mathematical reasoning: Opportunities for
developing understanding and creative thinking
- Abstract: Vale, Colleen; Bragg, Leicha A; Widjaja, Wanty; Herbert, Sandra; Loong, Esther Yook-Kin
  Reasoning underpins students' mathematical understanding and promotes creative thinking. It is regarded as a key mathematical proficiency. This article discusses the reasoning actions that primary children employed and teachers noticed for "What else belongs?" a task focused on forming and testing conjectures.

Volume 22 Issue 1 - Class challenging tasks: Using cognitive load theory
to inform the design of challenging mathematical tasks
- Abstract: Russo, James; Hopkins, Sarah
  This paper outlines a seven step process for developing problem-solving tasks informed by cognitive load theory. Through an example of a task developed for Year 2 students, we show how this approach can be used to produce challenging mathematical tasks that aim to optimise cognitive load for each student.
