This article details an exploration of exponential decay and growth relationships using M&M's and dice. Students collect data for mathematical models and use graphing calculators to make sense of the general form of the exponential functions. (Contains 10 figures and 2 tables.)

Introduces a project in which students use dynamic geometry software with a TI-92 graphing calculator to study geometric constructions. Concludes that interactive technology can enhance the geometry curriculum and better meet the needs of visual and tactile learners than the traditional approach. (ASK)

Argues that teachers and lecturers need to identify essential skills which are technology-independent and need to determine the most effective use of new technology in the classroom. Examines prospects for change using the newer technology of graphing calculators for mathematics courses. Contains 15 references. (ASK)
