results practices
1) All teachers except Amani preserved their entry practice levels. Tima and Sara
stayed as moderate practitioners (they use GeoGebra sometimes in their
practices) similarly Hazem stayed as high practitioner (use GeoGebra most of
the time) in his practices whereas Amani improved from low practitioner (never/rarely
use GeoGebra sometimes in her practices) to moderate practitioner.
2) The change in between the iterations in the extent of use by each of the
participating teachers, in general, whether to higher extent or lower extent of
use seems was not the same for all the cases. It was mostly a slow change (took
two iterations to reach that level) for Amani and Tima, mostly a quick change
(took one iteration to reach that level) for Sara, whereas it was mostly
dynamic (it was increasing then decreasing or vice versa in between iterations)
for Hazem.
3) The mediating factors whether assisting or limiting were sometimes the same for all
the participating teachers and sometimes they were different. For example, the collaboration with the researcher (assistive ZPA) and the accessibility to hardware (limiting ZFM) were common for
all the teachers. Whereas students’ motivation (ZFM), for example, for Sara sometimes was limiting and other times was assisting and for Amani it was all the time assisting.
