Abstract

Since the beginning of this century, a new round of fundamental education curriculum reforms has been promoted widely. One key foundation of the curriculum reform has been to speedup the process of IT education and to promote the integration of IT into the mathematics curriculum. According to the Basic Education Curriculum Reform Outline (Ministry of Education of People’s Republic of China, 2001a), National Medium Long-term Education Reform and Development Plan (2010–2020) (The State Council, 2010), Education Information Decade Development Plan (2011–2020) (Ministry of Education of People’s Republic of China, 2012a), and The National Education Development of The 12th Five-year Plan (Ministry of Education of People’s Republic of China, 2012b), it is necessary to continue collectively to advance the deepening of understanding, implementation, and promotion of IT to be used widely in the teaching process. To achieve the changes, it has been necessary to improve the presentation of teaching content, the methods of students’ learning, teaching strategies, and the teacher–student interaction modes in order to fully implement the advantages of IT and provide a variety of educational environments and powerful learning tools for students’ learning and development (Ministry of Education of People’s Republic of China, 2001b).
