Korenova, Lilla – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2015
Digital technologies have made their way not only into our everyday lives, but nowadays they are also commonly used in schools. Computers, tablets and smartphones are now part of the lives of this new generation of students, so it's only natural that they are used for educational purposes as well. Besides the interactive whiteboards, computers and…

Liang, Jiajuan; Pan, William S. Y. – American Journal of Business Education, 2009
MATLAB is a powerful package for numerical computation. MATLAB contains a rich pool of mathematical functions and provides flexible plotting functions for illustrating mathematical solutions. The course of calculus-based business mathematics consists of two major topics: 1) derivative and its applications in business; and 2) integration and its…

Petrocelli, John V. – Teaching of Psychology, 2007
Undergraduate students (N = 47), enrolled in 2 separate psychology research methods classes, evaluated a power analysis lab demonstration and homework assignment. Students attended 1 of 2 lectures that included a basic introduction to power analysis and sample size analysis. One lecture included a demonstration of how to use a computer-based power…

Arnold, Stephen – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 2004
Not so long ago, the common response of teachers to high school use of computer algebra systems (CAS) was invariably along the lines of, "What will be left to teach if our students have access to devices which solve, factorise, do calculus and more?" and "If students use such tools, then they will never learn how to do their mathematics, and their…

Hancock, Vicki; Betts, Frank – Educational Leadership, 1994
A key obstacle to using educational technology is limited support for teachers trying to integrate unfamiliar techniques into instruction. Research-verified technologies include calculators, distance education, drill and practice (CAI) systems, laser videodiscs, microcomputer-based labs, presentation software, and telecommunications. Emerging and…

Kieran, Carolyn; Saldanha, Luis – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2005
Equivalence of algebraic expressions is at the heart of transformational work in algebra. However, we know very little about students' understanding of equivalence. This study is part of a larger project that explores the use of CAS as a didactical tool for promoting both technical and conceptual growth in high school algebra with tasks specially…

Connors, Mary Ann – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 1997
Educators need to learn more about the impact of computers and calculators on content and methods of college mathematics instruction. Experience suggests this interactive technology encourages active participation in learning, resulting in learner sense of ownership. Technology allows visualization, promotes exploration of various methods of…

Lynch, Joan K.; And Others – Mathematics Teacher, 1989
Describes the results of three years of field-work and the prospects for change in algebra teaching as a consequence of using computers and calculators. Summarizes the structure of text materials, classroom organization, and students' responsibilities. (YP)

Willoughby, Stephen S.; Weinberg, Sharon L. – 1991
The purpose of this project was to develop and field test supplementary mathematics curriculum materials that could be used in a typical school setting to introduce elementary school children to calculators and computers in the process of solving everyday mathematical problems. The materials were designed to help teachers: (1) familiarize children…

Severinsen, G. – Australian Educational Computing, 2003
Technology in secondary schools has become of increasing interest as the power of the microchip has developed. For the students of Mathematics, computers and handheld graphic calculators need to be accessible to all. They are relevant to the needs of the students' courses and to support and develop their Mathematical learning (Smith, 1997).…
