Morante, Antonio; Vallejo, Jose A. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2012
We exhibit a simple model of a plane landing that involves only basic concepts of differential calculus, so it is suitable for a first-year calculus lab. We use the computer algebra system Maxima and the interactive geometry software GeoGebra to do the computations and graphics. (Contains 5 figures and 1 note.)

Wegman, Edward J. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1974
The use of computer graphics in an introductory statistics course is described. The advantages over more traditional diagrammatic representations are discussed and an outline is given of two computer-supported graphic display systems. A description is also provided of an experiment, designed to evaluate the influence of such graphic aids. (JP)
