Abstract
Pre-service teachers find themselves situated within a potentially technology-rich environment for mathematical learning. This article summarizes the results of a study with 14 pre-service teachers who designed a lesson plan integrating a technology tool. Results of the study suggest that pre-service teachers’ selection of technology tools tended to center around those tools they found to be fun, engaging, and motivating, rather than tools which promoted conceptual learning. Results also showed that not all pre-service teachers took advantage of the affordances of technology tools for mathematical learning. Implications for teacher educators are discussed.
