Using Computers to Reinforce and Enrich the Mathematics Curriculum.

Peer reviewed

Elgarten, Gerald H. – Mathematics Teacher, 1984

Discusses a structured approach to teaching computer programing in secondary schools. The approach can be used in an introductory computer programing (literacy) course or as a method to teach computer programing in traditional mathematics courses. Two sample lesson summaries (related to temperature conversions) are included. (JN)

Grade 9 Mathematics in the Computer Lab: An Introductory Study.

Peer reviewed

Gurney, Penelope J. – McGill Journal of Education, 1996

Describes a pilot project incorporating extensive use of computers in mathematics instruction. Test scores and homework from this group were compared with a group that did not use computers. Results were inconclusive and only revealed a shortage of appropriate instructional software. (MJP)
