Peer reviewedChinnappan, Mohan; Lawson, Michael J.; Gardner, Dane – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1998
Reports on the design and trialing of a Hypercard testing procedure known as the Recognition and Testing System (RATS) that will enable mathematics teachers and researchers to generate data relating to domain knowledge representation and its access by focusing on students' knowledge of plane geometry and trigonometry. Contains 11 references.…

Peer reviewedCallender, J. T.; Jackson, R. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1998
Analyzes the mathematics of rotational and translational motion and how one can influence the other in the context of cams and cranks. Describes how the individual components can be brought together to simulate a four-stroke engine and how the engine animates again using the same simple macro. (Author/ASK)

Peer reviewedAbramovich, Sergei – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1998
Argues that basic components of discrete mathematics can be introduced to students through gradual elaboration of experiences with iconic spreadsheet-based simulations of concrete materials. Suggests that the study of homogeneous and heterogeneous patterns of manipulative spreadsheet templates allows for appreciation of the development of…
