Improving the quality of teaching and learning by effective use of technology is a common goal that brings together teachers, researchers, students and, more widely, other citizens. However, the roads leading to this goal are often quite different. What are the main changes, for teachers, for students and in the interactions between students and teachers? Different theoretical frameworks provide tools to analyse and understand what happens in the classroom: multirepresentation and multimodality; instrumental and documentational genesis; role of technology in an experimental part of mathematics, didactical incidents. Starting from experiments, this chapter shows how these frameworks can be combined to analyse the role of technology, the difficulties and some success in mathematics education.
