Computers and multimedia in the situation of language and cultural diversity

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The paper focuses on the issue of developing and supplementing teaching mathematics in linguistically and culturally heterogeneous classrooms using computers and multimedia. The issue of how to support teachers who face the reality of having to teach in a setting where the mother tongue of some learners is not the language of instruction has recently attracted a lot of attention. The authors ask if and how computer technologies and multimedia might help in preparation and individualization of teaching materials suitable for use in these situations, i.e. when both teachers and learners have to cope when language and culture may be an obstacle to learning and teaching mathematics. The authors demonstrate that meaningful and appropriate use of computer technologies and multimedia may support preparation of teaching materials and their use in lessons. Different uses of ICT proposed in different teaching units developed by members of the project team M3EaL and actually used in piloting in 6 European countries (France, Italy, Austria, Norway, Greece, the Czech Republic) are shown. The authors discuss their potential for development of both mathematical competence and communication skills in the language of instruction. The paper also shows the potential of ICT as the source of materials that can supplement traditional printed materials that do not reflect the specific needs of migrant pupils. Examples of concrete didactical units are shown and discussed. The developed materials illustrate the rich potential of the use of computers and multimedia materials both by teachers and pupils. Each of the developed units was piloted by three project partners. Each of the piloting teachers adapted the proposed material to meet the conditions of their own classroom. And it was the process of adapting and piloting the materials that showed the rich variety of possible uses of ICT.
