A sequence of exploratory activities is designed to help beginners use the BASIC language and make simple pictures by graphing pairs of numbers. (MNS)

The material is designed to help pupils investigate how the value for slope in the equation of a line affects the inclination for the graph of an equation. A program written in BASIC designed to run on an Apple microcomputer is included. Worksheet masters for duplication are provided. (MP)

The use of microcomputers to aid geometry instruction is emphasized through discussion of a program written in BASIC which provides for experimenting with polynomial curves. The program listing is included. (MP)

A hungry worm is looking for something to eat according to very specific rules, and the path he takes is a graph. The problem is detailed in Applesoft BASIC using low resolution graphics for worms that turn 90 degrees and high resolution for worms that can turn 45 degrees. (MP)

A program developed by a high school freshman is presented that plots unusual graphs on the screen of a TRS-80 computer. The view promoted is that teachers of advanced mathematics should not be surprised if new ways of looking at the subject come from students interacting with computers. (MP)

This paper outlines the development of an activity that uses the computer's unique capabilities to provide students with a meaningful and highly motivating experience with the graphing of equations. The basic design of the game calls for the computer to display a coordinate grid on which it graphs any equations that are typed in by the student.…

On these worksheets, students are to graph pairs of linear equations and linear combinations of these pairs, using the results to discover an algebraic technique for solving a system of epuations. They then complete, run, and modify a computer program for solving a system of linear equations. (MNS)

An introductory unit on slope, designed to give students a chance to discover some of the basic relationships between functions and slopes, is described. Programs written in BASIC for PET microcomputers were used. It is felt that students have the background to understand derivatives after experiences with this unit. (MP)

A framework is presented for integrating use of a microcomputer into a statistics unit. Descriptions of some programs suitable for the Apple microcomputer and ideas for lessons are included. (MNS)

A program designed to tutor algebra students in inequalities is presented. The program is designed around the graphics of the Apple II computer, and randomly picks graphs, and shades inequalities. (MP)

Experiences with complex numbers and graphical representations of them are discussed, with a program for a microcomputer. (MNS)
