Abstract
This paper discusses classroom dynamics and pedagogical strategies that support teaching mathematical generalisation through activities embedding a speciallydesigned microworld. A prototype of our microworld was used during several oneto-one and classroom studies. The preliminary analysis of the data have allowed us to see the implications of designing and evaluating this specific technological tool in the classroom as well as the teachers’ and the students’ requirements. These studies feed into the design of the intelligent support that we envisage the system will be able to offer to all students and the teacher. In particular, they helped us identify which aspects of teachers’ interventions could be delegated to our system and what types of information would be useful for supporting teachers.
