Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the impact of Dynamic Mathematical Learning Objects (DMLOs) designed for the parabola unit of mathematics lessons, according to the 5E learning model, on students' academic achievements and class participation. The research comprehensively addressed the design stages and required materials and commands for utilizing learning objects prepared using the Wolfram Mathematica application platform. Additionally, findings from similar studies regarding the effects of DMLOs on students were analyzed and compared with the research results, discussing the role and significance of DMLOs in mathematics education. This study made a significant contribution by evaluating the effectiveness of DMLOs in mathematics instruction and understanding how they can be used to enhance students' comprehension of the parabola concept. The research outcomes underscored the effective utilization of technology in mathematics education and how it can enhance learning processes.
