Martinovic, Dragana; Manizade, Agida G. – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2020
This paper describes outcomes from a project conducted at a small US university where 23 secondary school mathematics teachers participated in the study. Based on sketches created in a dynamic geometry software (DGS) and written responses to an assignment related to developing the trapezoid area formula, we explored how teachers used DGS when…

Gerny, Marianne; Alpers, Burkhard – International Journal of Computers for Mathematical Learning, 2004
In this article we describe a mathematical microworld for investigating car motion on a racing course and its use with a group of grade 12 students. The microworld is concerned with the mathematical construction of courses and functions which describe car motion. It is implemented in the computer algebra system, Maple[R], which provides the means…
