Review (skim over these)
“Multiple representation” is a very academic term. Basically, in non-academic-y lingo the theories say that multiple representations of concepts facilitate knowledge and understanding.
We will use multiple representations to teach this to you!
Representation #1:
Here is a commercial example (spend some time on the site watching the videos and reading the supplemental material):
TI-nspire by Texas Instruments
Representation #2:
Now, a traditional academic example (skim through the article):
Voithofer, R. J (2005). Designing New Media Education Research: The Materiality of Data, Representation, and Dissemination. Educational Researcher. 34 (9), 3–14. (PDF)
Essentially, at the heart, they have the same goals – promoting the use of multiple representations using technology – presented in very different ways. Is one better than the other? It is not a question of better or worse, by presenting BOTH to you, there is a better chance that I have touched different areas of your brain increasing the chances that you will understand the concept.
Further Explorations…(not required)
