Nord, Gail M. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2011
Calculators and computers make new modes of instruction possible; yet, at the same time they pose hardships for school districts and mathematics educators trying to incorporate technology with limited monetary resources. In the "Standards," a recommended classroom is one in which calculators, computers, courseware, and manipulative materials are…

Flesher, Tatyana; Holder, Eleanor – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2007
One of the main problems in undergraduate research in pure mathematics is that of determining a problem that is, at once, interesting to and capable of solution by a student who has completed only the calculus sequence. It is also desirable that the problem should present something new, since novelty and originality greatly increase the enthusiasm…

Murray, Russell H. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2005
Although the phase plane can be plotted and analyzed using an appropriate software package, the author found it worthwhile to engage the students with the theorem and the two proofs. The theorem is a powerful tool that provides insight into the rotational behavior of the phase plane diagram in a simple way: just check the signs of c and [alpha].…

Mathews, John H. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1989
This article illustrates that mathematical theory can be incorporated into the process to solve differential equations by a computer algebra system, muMATH. After an introduction to functions of muMATH, several short programs for enhancing the capabilities of the system are discussed. Listed are six references. (YP)
