SELF-STUDY OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO SOLVE LINEAR EQUATIONS THROUGH MOBILE LEARNING WITH MICROSOFT MATH SOLVER APPLICATION ON SMARTPHONES

Tóm tắt

Mobile learning refers to the process of learning using mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and other handheld devices to provide educational content, study materials, and learning experiences for users anytime and anywhere, thanks to internet connectivity. With the advancement of the Internet, smartphones have evolved into a ubiquitous cultural instrument on a global scale. Mobile learning is suitable for developing self-management and self-study competencies, one of the three general competencies in the Vietnam 2018 General Education Curriculum. We have developed self-study activities for students by leveraging the Microsoft Math Solver application, an AI app predating AI Chatboxes, for learning linear equations for 8th graders. The results of this study confirm the effectiveness of self-study through the selected mobile learning app. Students are active in self-study at home as required in the 2018 Mathematics Curriculum. Teachers can rely on what students study at home to consolidate this knowledge in the classroom.
