Use of CAS in Secondary School: A Factor Influencing the Transition to University-Level Mathematics?
Varsavsky, Cristina – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2012
Australian secondary school systems offer three levels of senior (year 12) mathematics studies, none of them compulsory: elementary, intermediate and advanced. The intermediate and advanced studies prepare students for further mathematics studies at university level. In the state of Victoria, there are two versions of intermediate mathematics: one…

Lowe, D. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2013
Remote laboratories (RLs) have become increasingly seen as a useful tool in supporting flexible shared access to scarce laboratory resources. An important element in supporting shared access is coordinating the scheduling of the laboratory usage. Optimized scheduling can significantly decrease access waiting times and improve the utilization level…
