The purpose of this study was to investigate how the use of TI-Nspire[TM] could enhance the teaching and learning of calculus. A conceptual framework for the use of TI-Nspire[TM] for learning calculus in a mathematics classroom is proposed that describes the interactions among the students, TI-Nspire[TM], and the learning tasks, and how they lead…

The revolution of technology in education has heralded a new wave of learning styles and in some cases total dependence on technology. Yet, statistics reveal no significant improvement in student performance in Mathematics and a downward trend in basic algebra skills. The major impediment in the learning process is lack of understanding of the…

The authors suggest a few games for which programmable pocket calculators are used to create an environment in which mathematical concepts can be experienced more easily by students. (Author/MK)

The effect of the use of calculators on learning and on calculation is discussed. Also, the effects of the use of calculators in developing countries and for deprived minorities are discussed. (MP)
