Virtual Manipulatives
What are Manipulatives? Physical objects used to promote learning
e.g. tangram, base ten blocks
Well-established as being valuable education tools for mathematics(Sowell 1989)

Virtual Manipulatives
What are Virtual Manipulatives? “… an interactive, web-based visual representation
of a dynamic object that presents opportunities for constructing mathematical knowledge”
(Moyer, Bolyard, & Spikell 2002)
Web-based Manipulable
Synonyms: Math Applets, Mathlets, Widgets, Gizmos
![Page 7: 1 Virtual Manipulatives & Online Collaboration with the free math software GeoGebra Markus Hohenwarter Florida Atlantic University markus@geogebra.org.](https://reader030.fdocument.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e3c5503460f94b2eef1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Virtual Manipulatives
Student Activity
“Mathematics is not, as has been said, a spectator sport. Too much of current instruction fails to actively involve students.”
(National Library of Virtual Manipulatives)

Virtual Manipulatives
Which medium is best?
“What we have learned from all the media comparison research is that it’s not the medium, but rather the instructional methods that cause learning. When the instructional methods remain essentially the same, so does the learning, no matter how the instruction is delivered.”(Clark & Mayer 2007: e-Learning and the Science of Instruction)
![Page 13: 1 Virtual Manipulatives & Online Collaboration with the free math software GeoGebra Markus Hohenwarter Florida Atlantic University markus@geogebra.org.](https://reader030.fdocument.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e3c5503460f94b2eef1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Web-Based Virtual Learning
“Student achievement in courses using email and web-based virtual learning is slightly better than in courses using traditional instruction.”
(Meriti 2006: Technology in Schools: What research says)
![Page 14: 1 Virtual Manipulatives & Online Collaboration with the free math software GeoGebra Markus Hohenwarter Florida Atlantic University markus@geogebra.org.](https://reader030.fdocument.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e3c5503460f94b2eef1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Virtual Manipulatives
Technology in Schools
“Overall, across all uses in all content areas technology does provide a small, but significant, increase in learning when implemented with fidelity.”
(Meriti 2006: Technology in Schools: What research says)

Virtual Manipulatives
Logistic Benefits of VMs
Easily accessible and manageable Low technological learning curve Available out-of-school Many people can develop them Can do things that are not possible with
physical manipulatives or pencil and paper(Young 2006)
![Page 17: 1 Virtual Manipulatives & Online Collaboration with the free math software GeoGebra Markus Hohenwarter Florida Atlantic University markus@geogebra.org.](https://reader030.fdocument.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e3c5503460f94b2eef1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Virtual Manipulatives
Example: Reflection at Line

Virtual Manipulatives
Teaching Benefits of VMs Instantaneous, corrective feedback Various representations at the same time Help students to understand abstract concepts Lead to more complex, richer understanding Promote problem solving and the ability
to test hypotheses Helpful for students with disabilities Increase attention and motivation
(also in teachers) (Young 2006, CITEd 2007)
![Page 19: 1 Virtual Manipulatives & Online Collaboration with the free math software GeoGebra Markus Hohenwarter Florida Atlantic University markus@geogebra.org.](https://reader030.fdocument.pub/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e3c5503460f94b2eef1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Virtual Manipulatives
Teachers are important
“The mere use of manipulatives does not guarantee that students understand concepts and procedures and be able to connect these concepts to abstract symbols without teachers making these connections explicit.”
(Reimer & Moyer 2005)

Virtual Manipulatives
What’s missing for VM?
Professional Development: Support for teachers on how to find and use them
Reusable and Changeable VMs:Teachers should be able to adapt VMs to their specific needs
Research: More classroom studies, especially in high schools
