Abstract

This paper discusses the need for a professional development process if the educational staff were to use digital manipulative artefacts in primary mathematics education. The project is based on how to develop a teaching sequence to use robots as digitally manipulative artefacts to support students’ mathematical understanding and computational thinking. This paper is a part of an ongoing project and will demonstrate how educational staff through an expansive learning process, develop a teaching sequence to support the students’ mathematical and computational understanding by working with robots as a digital manipulative artefact.
