Peer reviewedIseke-Barnes, Judith M. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1997
Examines human-computer interaction from two views of cognition: the representationist view and the enactivist perspective. A chaos-theory context is discussed from an enactivist stance. In this context, high school students manipulate nonlinear dynamic computer programs. Implications of the enactive stance for education and research are also…

Peer reviewedPloger, Don; Carlock, Margaret – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 1996
Examines the self-directed activity of two students who learned about molecular structure by writing computer programs. The programs displayed the solution of a mathematics problem, then the programs were extended to represent several classes of organic molecules. Different ways to enhance mathematical connections to chemistry education are…
