Abstract

We examine how young children work together in small groups using interactive multimodal technologies that integrate dynamic geometry software with multi-touch interfaces in order to understand a fundamental scientific idea ofcovariation. The study aims to investigate how 4th-grade children co-construct mathematical strategies for solving an Etchasketch-like activity using the Geometer’ Sketchpad® and the iPad.
