Computer Based Mathematics Education (CBME)

CBME is one of the mathematics education methods that is enriched by the use of computers. In order to better analyze CBME, the disciplines of mathematics, education, and computers including their features should be explored more and understood deeply because the domain of CBME is based on the intersection of these three disciplines and rises from this domain. However, it is not safe to reduce its importance by narrowing its domain and features. Although the features of these disciplines generate a base for the science of CBME, CBME has synthesized these disciplines and developed its own interpretation and features. This analysis will be performed as 3-layer analysis: In the first analysis, main domains and features of mathematics, education, and computers will be analyzed in order to clarify which aspects of these disciplines demonstrate what kinds of contents. In the second analysis, the intersection of these main domains and their double interactions will be analyzed, and potential research areas will be described. Finally, in the third analysis, a deeper analysis will be performed over the intersection of these three domains in order to explore the types of new and uncovered connections and features of this area.
