Lu, Yun; Vasko, Francis J.; Drummond, Trevor J.; Vasko, Lisa E. – Mathematics Teacher, 2014
If the prospective students of probability lack a background in mathematical proofs, hands-on classroom activities may work well to help them to learn to analyze problems correctly. For example, students may physically roll a die twice to count and compare the frequency of the sequences. Tools such as graphing calculators or Microsoft Excel®…

Weigand, Hans-Georg; Bichler, Ewald – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2010
Many empirical investigations concerning the use of computer algebra systems (CAS) and symbolic calculators (SC) are restricted to a period of only a few weeks. They do not show long-term effects on students understanding. Therefore, a long term project (2003-2012) was started to test the use of symbolic calculators in Bavarian…

Nicolaou, Christiana T.; Nicolaidou, Iolie; Zacharia, Zacharias; Constantinou, Constantinos P. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2007
This article reports on a research effort that investigated whether the use of Microcomputer-Based Labs (MBLs), implemented within an inquiry-based activity sequence on phase transformations (melting and freezing), contributes to the development of fourth grade (9-10 year-old) students' conceptual understanding and ability to construct and…

Middlesex County Vocational and Technical High Schools, New Brunswick, NJ. – 1979
A project studied a method to overcome possible embarrassment and "math anxiety" of secondary level students in remedial and special needs math classes and to sustain interest in drill practice while allowing for better utilization of the teacher's time. One Monroe Calculator "Classmate 88" programmed calculator was placed in…
