Maximising the potential of information technology in the mathematics classroom – this is the vision of Niren Naidoo, a Masters Degree in Technology: Education graduate. Naidoo aims to use his research to empower educators to tap into the endless possibilities that computers, in particular networked laboratory computing, provide in the teaching of mathematics. Apart from his masters dissertation on web-based learning and its applications in primary school mathematics, he has presented  papers at refereed international conferences in 2006-8. These were at Orlando, Florida (Society for Information Technology and Teacher Education) and Honolulu, Hawaii (College Teaching and Learning/Applied Business Research Conference), Montreal (International Conference on e-Learning), Johannesburg (International Learning Conference), Port Elizabeth (The Association for Mathematics Education in South Africa) and Corfu, Greece (International Conference on Information Communication Technologies in Education). In addition 2 papers on blended learning and collaborative computing in the teaching of mathematics have been published in the Journal of College Teaching and Learning and International Journal of Learning respectively. Naidoo is pursuing his doctorate with the aim of facilitating the teaching and learning of mathematics through technology enhanced techniques.
