A model for analysing digital mathematics teaching material from a social semiotic perspective

• The use of digital teaching materials is increasing in mathematics teaching. The dynamic resources of these materials have great potential, for example to adapt the content to different teaching methods and different students. These materials also provide new opportunities for the increasing distance learning. However, in order to take advantage of this potential and to avoid possible disadvantages, a deepened understanding of the function of these materials is needed. In this article, we describe a social semiotic model for multimodal analysis of digital teaching materials in mathematics. The suggested model is intended as a tool for researchers as well as for teachers, to analyse how affordances by digital technology are utilized to offer mathematical meaning in different teaching materials, by an analysis of networks of information offered regarding central aspects of mathematical concepts.
