Peer reviewedNoble, Tracy; Nemirovsky, Ricardo – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1997
Reports on the case study of a high school student using a computer-based tool called the Contour Analyzer to create graphs of height versus distance and slope versus distance for a flat board positioned with different slants and orientations. Focuses on visually recognizing the mathematical behavior of the slope versus distance function which…
