Our comments on the article "A Practical Framework for Technology Integration in Mathematics Education" by Cheah Ui Hock...

When computation is done by technology, they can know and understand the concept better by paying attention on those. in addition, technology has its advantages and disadvantages. Thus, it is up to the teacher to decide on what, how and when to integrate technology. For instance, not all the topics are suitable to be taught through technology. Therefore, the teachers need to consider the suitability of the content as well.
