SAMPAIO, Patricia Alexandra da Silva Ribeiro. Mathematics teachers’ technological knowledge about interactive whiteboards according to public policies of lifelong training. Ensaio: aval. pol. públ. educ. [online]. 2016, vol.24, n.93, pp.845-865. ISSN 0104-4036. https://doi.org/10.1590/S0104-40362016000400004.
The Education Technological Plan was a major program of technological improvement in Portuguese schools. It was composed by three axes: Technology, Content and Training. In this framework, a research was made on the effect of these public policies on teachers’ daily practices using interactive whiteboards (IW). A questionnaire was applied to 453 math teachers in Portugal. It was concluded that teachers consider they have a good level of ICT knowledge and they frequently use technological tools in classes. They also consider they have technological knowledge on IW, but a widespread of its use can still be seen. Teachers feel a great need to improve their ability to use the IW tools in order to give students different opportunities when learning and practicing mathematics. Teachers upgraded their technological knowledge on IW tools by participating in lifelong training under these policies. Nevertheless, there is still a long way to go to improve Mathematics TPACK.
