Abstract

The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of using GeoGebra in teaching functions on mathematical language development and self-efficacy perceptions of tenth grade students. The study, which used the action research method, changes in participants’ language structures were examined with the worksheets, mathematical language questions, researcher’s logs and participant’s logs; participants' self-efficacy perceptions were also examined with the self-efficacy perception scale. The ability of the participants to switch between the sub-dimensions of mathematical language was observed. The research showed that GeoGebra-Assisted Education improved the participants’ perceptions of mathematical self-efficacy and positively affected their mathematical language skills. Since the effective use of mathematical language is an important component of mathematics lessons, the results present important findings.

Ethical Statement

Ethical approval and written permission for this study were obtained from the Social and Human Sciences Scientific Research and Publication Ethics Committee of Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University with the decision numbered 69972237-302.08.01-E.52412.
