As anyone who has taught or taken a statistics course knows, statistical calculations can be tedious and error-prone, with the details of a calculation sometimes distracting students from understanding the larger concepts. Traditional statistics courses typically use scientific calculators, which can relieve some of the tedium and errors but…

Vasquez, Selina – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2004
M.Y. Math Project is a developmental mathematics program that is aimed at: (1) fostering fundamental and problem-solving skills in developmental mathematics students by helping them to learn when and how to create and use algorithms; and (2) providing on-the-job training for developmental mathematics instructors through an instructional framework…

Peer reviewedEhrlich, Amos – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1988
The suggested program is designed for mathematics teachers. It concerns the solution of systems of linear equations, but it does not complete the job on its own. The user is the solver while the computer is merely a computing assistant. (MNS)

Murray, Russell H. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2005
Although the phase plane can be plotted and analyzed using an appropriate software package, the author found it worthwhile to engage the students with the theorem and the two proofs. The theorem is a powerful tool that provides insight into the rotational behavior of the phase plane diagram in a simple way: just check the signs of c and [alpha].…

Peer reviewedMathews, John – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1989
Uses muMATH to illustrate the step-by-step process in translating mathematical theory into the symbolic manipulation setting. Shows an application of a Picard iteration which uses a computer to generate a sequence of functions which converge to a solution. (MVL)

Shore, Mark; Shore, JoAnna; Boggs, Stacey – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2004
For this FIPSE funded project, mathematics faculty attended allied health classes and allied health faculty attended developmental mathematics courses to incorporate health examples into the developmental mathematics curriculum. Through the course of this grant a 450-page developmental mathematics book was written with many problems from a variety…
