Paper Abstract:
|
Virtual manipulative using a graphical user interface provided interactive and visual representations of dynamic objects for constructing mathematical knowledge. Moreover, peer-mediated interventions offered a promising approach in math learning for students with learning difficulties in the face-to-face settings. Therefore, this study focused on developing the synchronous peer-tutoring system named G-Math for elementary students with learning difficulties in mathematics. The results of this study showed the effectiveness of G-Math. |
