Peer reviewedGoldenberg, E. Paul – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 1988
Computer software with graphic representations of functions can teach algebraic concepts, or can blur or obscure concepts of great importance. Making good use and bad use of visual imagery are each discussed. Then a general theory of interpretation of graphs is proposed, and a list of examples is presented. (MNS)

Beyond the Evident Content Goals Part I. Tapping the Depth and Flow of the Educational Undercurrent.
Peer reviewedDugdale, Sharon; Kibbey, David – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 1990
The first in a series of three articles, successful instructional materials from a 15-year software development effort are analyzed and characterized with special attention given to educational experiences intended to shape students' perceptions of the fundamental nature, interconnectedness, and usefulness of mathematics. The software programs…
