Abramovich, Sergei; Nikitin, Yakov Yu. – Computers in the Schools, 2017
This article is written to share teaching ideas about using commonly available computer applications--a spreadsheet, "The Geometer's Sketchpad", and "Wolfram Alpha"--to explore three classic and historically significant problems from the probability theory. These ideas stem from the authors' work with prospective economists,…

Thompson, Patrick W.; Dreyfus, Tommy – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1988
Investigates whether elementary school students can construct operations of thought for integers and integer addition crucial for understanding elementary algebra. Two sixth graders were taught using a computer. Results included both students being able to construct mental operations for negating arbitrary integers and determining sign and…

Computer-Based Instruction in Statistical Inference; Final Report. Technical Memorandum (TM Series).
Rosenbaum, J.; And Others – 1967
A two-year investigation into the development of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) for the improvement of undergraduate training in statistics was undertaken. The first year was largely devoted to designing PLANIT (Programming LANguage for Interactive Teaching) which reduces, or completely eliminates, the need an author of CAI lessons would…

Schwartzman, Steven – Mathematics Teacher, 1988
Investigates the arithmetic curiosity that when any integer is raised to the fifth power, the digits unit of the result is always the same as the digits unit of the original number. Explores results in number bases other than 10 via the computer. (PK)

Stake, Bernadine Evans – 1977
Work with PLATO, a computer-based teaching system which provides a means for individualizing instruction, is described. Children sit at terminals and respond to directives and questions on the screen by touching it or by typing a message. PLATO responds, and prescribes work in accordance with the child's previous performance. Curricular materials…
