I find it interesting to think of how we function in the traditional school system, where we are taught to learn things or concepts by heart (like for example mathematics) without really needing to reason or understand what we are actually doing. This article shows how children, thanks to this technological tool, "[d]eepen[...] mathematical understanding and higher-order thinking skills (HOTS)[, meaning] communicating about mathematics (Analyzing), [d]etermining values of shapes (Evaluating), [c]reating equations to explain relationships between shape values (Creating)".
