Discusses reasons for and ways of using computer software to teach mechanics. Describes using software to explore mechanics, challenge misconceptions, make links between mathematical representations and motion, and solve non-standard problems. Stresses the need for structured approaches to the use of software. (Contains 24 references.) (Author/ASK)

Examines issues relevant to the development, implementation, and evaluation of educational software in mathematics in the particular context of a Mathwise module covering the topic of complex numbers. Presents results of an evaluation exercise and some conclusions on issues of design and implementation. Contains 13 references. (ASK)

Discusses software for geometric construction, measurement, and calculation, and software for numerical calculation and symbolic analysis that allows for new approaches to the solution of geometric problems. Illustrates these computer-aided graphical, numerical, and algebraic methods of solution and discusses examples using the appropriate choice…

Provides an overview of recent changes in calculus education at Chinese colleges and universities. Focuses on the changes parallel to the development of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) technology and software. Discusses how the wide application of mathematical CAI software has greatly facilitated mathematical experimentation and offerings of…
