Synopsis
Students were exposed to Livescribe smartpens as a treatment to help improve mathematics understanding in the classroom. Students self-reported on pre-and post-test survey instruments and the data were analyzed to reveal trends in student attitudes, self-efficacy and achievement. Findings suggest that students grasp concepts at a faster rate and with more confidence than they did before. Data reveals several statistically significant differences in pre-test and post-test measures of students.
