Sauerheber, Richard; Muñoz, Brandon; McCallum, Kalvin – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
Graphical analysis of the relationships between pairs of integrals and their corresponding derivatives resulted in the development of a procedure one may describe as 'pictorial integration'. The arctangent of the derivative of various functions was analysed to confirm that this accurately reports the magnitude of angles made by integral functions…

Andrew Joseph Krause – ProQuest LLC, 2022
This is a study of student engagement with computational labs in Calculus 2. The labs task students with using MATLAB to investigate contexts such as rocket science, disease modeling, and market economics forecasting by modifying and executing provided code, guided by questions that have students report the results of their simulations or…

Chagwiza, Conilius Jaison; Maharaj, Aneshkumar; Brijlall, Deonarain – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
In this paper we focused on university mathematics students' mental constructions on the concept limit of a sequence. The aim was to explore the nature of the mental constructions and to contribute to Action-Process-Object-Schema (APOS) theory in terms of instructional strategy for teaching limit of sequences. The belief that understanding…

Kristanto, Y. D.; Melissa, M. M.; Panuluh, A. H. – Online Submission, 2019
The formal definition of limit is one mathematical idea that gives difficulties to most students. Therefore, it is necessary to provide engaging activity in order to construct the students' understanding about the definition. This study aims to shed light on designing activities with dynamic geometry software to facilitate the students in…

Amevor, G.; Bayaga, Anass; Bossé, Michael J. – Contemporary Educational Technology, 2021
Dynamic visual tools such as MATLAB have inbuilt features which are believed to be able to empower students to learn through the visualisation of three-dimensional objects. While student learning through MATLAB has been investigated regarding students in urban settings, only a handful of studies have investigated how MATLAB can assist students in…

Öçal, Mehmet Fatih – Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Technology, 2017
Graphing function is an important issue in mathematics education due to its use in various areas of mathematics and its potential roles for students to enhance learning mathematics. The use of some graphing software assists students' learning during graphing functions. However, the display of graphs of functions that students sketched by hand may…

Seneres, Alice W.; Kerrigan, John A. – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2014
There are specific topics in college calculus that can be major stumbling blocks for students. Having taught college calculus for four years to over a thousand students, we observed that even the students who have already taken pre-calculus or calculus during their high school careers had common misunderstandings. Students may remember a technique…

Salleh, Tuan Salwani; Zakaria, Effandi – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2016
The objective of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of a learning strategy using Maple in integral calculus. This research was conducted using a quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group design. One hundred engineering technology students at a technical university were chosen at random. The effectiveness of the learning…
