Peer reviewedStohl, Hollylynne; Harper, Suzanne R. – Mathematics Teacher, 2004
Two technology guidelines are contributed by Robin Rider of East Carolina University based on the TI-Interactive software she had introduced. The two guidelines to use for this software consist firstly of data gathering with a Calculator-Based Laboratory (CBL) and Calculator-Based Ranger (CBR) without a graphing calculator, and secondly the…

Pope, Sue – Micromath, 2003
Discusses drawing a Pythagoras diagram in the context of how computer software influences mathematical understanding. Requires different understandings of what the diagram involves in order to be successfully completed in different environments. Suggests that while LOGO is often expected to be easier, a graphic calculator can be less demanding.…
