This study examined the question, ‘What is the impact of a digital math intervention on secondary ELL
students’ mathematical capabilities and perceptions of their future possibilities?’ The hypothesis was
that through its direct effect on increasing students’ math ability and its indirect effect on increasing
students’ perceived math self-efficacy, the digital intervention affects students’ perceptions of their
functionings and future possibilities. A path analysis, with qualitative data nested into the design, was
used to analyze the conceptualized relationships. The study was conducted with 50 ninth-and-10thgrade
Hispanic students in a Colorado high school, over 6 months. The primary finding was that
through its direct effect on increasing students’ math ability and its indirect effect on increasing students’
perceived math self-efficacy, the digital intervention improved students’ perceptions of their functionings
and future possibilities. What this study specifically underscores is the importance of taking
a coherent and purposeful approach toward the design of digital student-directed educational technology,
especially for ELL students who may have specific learning needs.
Welcome to the AMS Digital Mathematics Registry. The aim of the AMS-DMR is to provide centralized access to certain collections of digitized publications in the mathematical sciences. The registry is primarily focused on older material from journals and journal-like book series that originally appeared in print but now is available in digital form.
The registry is organized both by the collections and by the individual journals (or series) themselves, providing links to each that will be regularly verified and updated.
All versions of the Digital Mathematics Registry (DMR) are in the public domain; they may be downloaded, modified, and posted on other sites. Each version is dated, and the AMS requests that modifications of any version retain this date.
This registry is maintained as a public service by the AMS through Mathematical Reviews. Submissions of proposed new collections can be made by using the Submission Form
[The registry was inspired by work of the Committee on Electronic Information and Communication of the International Mathematical Union, as well as by Ulf Rehmann's Digital Mathematics Library.]
