Peer reviewedWilson, Melvin R.; Krapfl, Carol M. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1994
This review analyzes, in the context of current mathematics education reform recommendations, literature related to graphics calculators, including results of some early studies assessing the impact of graphics calculators on the achievement and disposition of secondary and early college students. (25 references) (LZ)

Peer reviewedvan Streun, Anno; Harskamp, Egbert; Suhre, Cor – Hiroshima Journal of Mathematics Education, 2000
Explores how the use of the graphics calculator may lead to changes in students' solution approaches and how these changes affect student achievement. Concludes that only prolonged use of the graphic calculator leads to enrichment of the solution repertoire of students and a better understanding of functions. (Contains 11 references.) (Author/ASK)

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the TI-81 Graphics Calculator as an instructional tool on college algebra students' conceptual and procedural achievements involving functions and graphs and on the students' attitudes toward mathematics. The study was a posttest-only, equivalent control group design conducted with students…

Adams, Thomasenia L. – Florida Education Research Council Research Bulletin, 1994
Algebra students typically pay little attention to choosing appropriate domains, ranges and scales of axes for graphing functions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of introducing an assignment and employing the graphing calculator to examine and alleviate students' difficulties regarding the selection of appropriate domains,…

National Assessment of Educational Progress, Princeton, NJ. – 1993
In 1990, the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) included a Trial State Assessment which, for the first time in the NAEP's history, made voluntary state-by-state assessments. This 1992 mathematics report marks the first attempt of the National Center for Education Statistics to shift to standards-based reporting of National…
