Peer reviewedWatson, Jane M. – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 1982
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)
Descriptors: Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Graphics, Computer Programs, Geometric Concepts
Piele, Donald T. – Creative Computing, 1982
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)

Peer reviewedWagner, William J. – Mathematics Teacher, 1982
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)

Peer reviewedBloom, Lynette M.; And Others – Mathematics in School, 1986
An intuitive approach to exponential functions is described. Microcomputers are used to aid discovery of derivatives. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Oriented Programs, Discovery Learning, Functions (Mathematics), Graphs
Peer reviewedHirsch, Christian R., Ed.; And Others – Mathematics Teacher, 1986
Activities for investigating how the value of a variable in an equation affects the direction and shape of the graph are given. A computer program and three worksheets are included. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Software, Equations (Mathematics), Graphs, Learning Activities
2002
This CD-ROM consists of software that allows both teachers and students to create and experiment with mathematical models by linking shapes, graphs, numbers, and equations. It is usable for demonstrations, home learning, reinforcing concepts, illustrating concepts that are difficult to visualize, further pupil investigations, and project work.…

Peer reviewedGoldenberg, E. Paul – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 1988
Computer software with graphic representations of functions can teach algebraic concepts, or can blur or obscure concepts of great importance. Making good use and bad use of visual imagery are each discussed. Then a general theory of interpretation of graphs is proposed, and a list of examples is presented. (MNS)

Renton Vocational Inst., WA. – 1983
The teacher's guide and collection of transparency masters are designed for use in teaching adult basic education (ABE) students how to read and interpret graphs and charts. Covered in the individual lessons of the instructional unit are the reading and interpretation of charts as well as picture, line, bar, and circle graphs. Each unit contains a…

World Eagle, Inc., Wellesley, MA. – 1987
It is important for students to have a feel for some of the key numerical and size characteristics of their country, and often graphic blackline masters permit easier, quicker learning than many chapters of text. For this purpose maps, tables, and graphs depicting various characteristics of the United States' population have been compiled in this…
