The globalization of educational processes has intensified the introduction of interactive learning forms. Education systems around the world have undergone transformation, modernization, and innovation. These processes also implied the implementation of advanced technological tools to improve the quality of teaching various subjects, including…

Mobile devices are characterized by attractive advantages, and provide broad benefits in the university students' math teaching. Our study proposes integrating the Mobile Applications in teaching geometry. Findings of the researches showed that students face difficulties in learning geometry. The material and virtual maneuvers may assist the…

In this paper, we report on a case study that focused on innovative uses of CAS technology in university mathematics teaching and assessment. The study involved a site visit to the University of Alberta campus (June 2015) during which: interviews were conducted with five mathematics faculty members and seven mathematics students; math lectures…

This mixed qualitative and quantitative methods study addressed the effect of technology on college algebra and survey of calculus students' understanding. This research study was conducted in fall 2016 on eight college algebra classes with a total of 315 students, and in summer 2017, on two survey of calculus classes with a total of 40 students…

Computer algebra systems are described. Features of such systems and information on MACSYMA, Maple, muMath, REDUCE, and SMP are given. (MNS)

Describes a number sequence made by counting the occurrence of each digit from 9 to 0, catenating this count with the digit, and joining these numeric strings to form a new term. Presents a computer-aided proof and an analytic proof of the sequence; compares these two methods of proof. (YP)

An environment for investigating vector-valued functions in two- and three-dimensional space using Logo is described. The language is presented, followed by use of the environment. Appended are Logo primitives and procedures. (MNS)

The use of a synthetic division microcomputer program in searching for the zeros in polynomial functions is described. A program listing and outputs are included. (MNS)

Computer algebra systems (such as MACSYMA and muMath) can carry out many of the operations of calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations. Use of them with sketching graphs of rational functions and with other topics is discussed. (MNS)

A problem from a course called "Introduction to Gambling" is described. A flowchart and a computer program are included. (MNS)

Differences in computer languages are noted. Symbol-based languages offer some distinct advantages over number-based languages, both in the form and the content of the student's interaction with the computer. Some of these advantages are explored and their applications to teaching mathematics described. (MNS)

Sophomore and junior students in the College of Engineering at Cornell University have been taught engineering mathematics using new computer software that performs exact symbolic algebraic and calculus operations. Describes this software, the computer-based mathematics laboratory, changes in the teaching/learning environment, and short- and…

Contains an update of an earlier listing of software for mathematics instruction at the college level. Topics are: advanced mathematics, algebra, calculus, differential equations, discrete mathematics, equation solving, general mathematics, geometry, linear and matrix algebra, logic, statistics and probability, and trigonometry. (PK)

Notes muMATH is a powerful computer algebra systems assistant for performing symbol manipulation in algebra and calculus. Provides several examples and program listings for calculus tutoring, differentiation drill problems, and integration drill problems. (MVL)

Provides a program listing in True BASIC which constructs several kinds of matrices: (1) matrices with integral entries that have inverses that have integral entries; (2) matrices with integral entries that have inverses that are rational numbers with reasonable denominators; and (3) matrices with integral entries and prescribed integer…
