Aims and Scope
Evolving technological developments have prompted
mathematical researchers, educators, as well as
practitioners of mathematics to use experimental
approaches in their respective investigations. With
new technology, many exciting and attractive
opportunities have been and will be created for
those students who enjoy mathematics and technology.
The eJMT strives for publishing quality papers to
convey to the readers that Mathematics and its
applicable fields can be made to be Fun, Accessible,
Challenging and Theoretical (FACT). Also, it will
provide readers global perspectives of how
mathematics curriculum is changing from country
to country when new technological tools become
available. It is the hope that the eJMT can foster
a culture that adequate training of the innovative
use of Technology is implemented in teachers’
training programs. Theoretical Mathematics can be
made accessible by many undergraduate students to
inspire them to further research in the future.
The eJMT, an international refereed journal, will
address technology-based issues in all Mathematical
Sciences. Thanks to advanced technological tools
such as computer algebra systems (CAS), interactive
and dynamic geometry, and hand-held devices, the
effectiveness of our teaching and learning, and
the horizon of our research in mathematics and its
applications continue to grow rapidly. In view of
this, the journal will deal primarily, but not
exclusively, with the use of technologies in
mathematics and mathematics education research,
pedagogy, and mathematics applications. The
mathematical contents should be accessible to
general audience who have four years of university
mathematics courses. The eJMT will communicate the
most recent applications of technology in mathematics
and its applications, in electronic format, which
include video and sound. It will enable those
interested in the experimental, developmental,
educational, and instructional aspects of technology
in mathematics to keep abreast of current
developments by publishing the results of
undergraduate research and innovative approaches
in this area. Moreover, whenever possible, the
eJMT will publish the source codes of programs
together with submitted papers electronically,
so readers can actually continue the experiments.
The journal is also a valuable medium for high
school mathematics teachers worldwide to discuss
effective ways of implementing technology in their
teaching. It will offer the possibility of
introducing teachers to the use of technology by
providing concrete examples and videos of the
interactions between a teacher and students in
a classroom. From country to country, the use of
technology in high school mathematics varies
greatly, and the journal is an excellent place
to provide collective worldwide ideas and share
their varying experiences.
The eJMT will publish electronic papers and notes
three times a year. The first issue is intended
to be available in February 2007. The eJMT seeks
quality electronic papers and notes describing either
original research or innovative uses of technology.
Quality review articles summarizing recent progress
in the field of technology in mathematics,
mathematics education research and related areas
are also sought. The areas of interest include,
but are not limited to:
