Abstract :
[en] This study reports the use of automated tutoring and scaffolding implemented in the
module “arithmetic word problem” in the educational technology software
MathemaTIC in grade 3 (age 8 to 10). We examined 246 students with access to
MathemaTIC and receiving tutoring and scaffolding through a one-to-one learning
setting with this technology. The control group (n=226) had access to the same
learning tasks and worked with paper-and-pencil without MathemaTIC but with their
teachers. Results showed that the experimental group finished with higher outcome
scores than the control group. This paper will outline the study and attempts to explain
these results.
