Using a computer
Figure 4.2.2 and Table 4.2.2 below indicate that both teachers and pupils perceived that
Using a computer promoted pupils’ enjoyment and motivation more than their sense of
security and sense of progress. Teachers and pupils of both age groups reported that on
average computers were never used in mathematics classes so their assessment of the
effect on attitudes to learning mathematics were not likely to be based on their
experiences in school.
