Blyth, Bill; Labovic, Aleksandra – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2009
Advanced mathematics courses have been developed and refined by the first author, using an action research methodology, for more than a decade. These courses use the computer algebra system (CAS) Maple in an "immersion mode" where all presentations and student work are done using Maple. Assignments and examinations are Maple files downloaded from…
