Hickey, Albert E. – Two Year Coll Math J, 1970
Reports on the pedagogical question of what can be done with the computer that is relevant to the mathematics curriculum. Five different modes of interaction between the computer and the students are proposed - (1) problem solving, (2) programed desk calculator, (3) simulation, (4) drill and practice, and (5) tutorial. (RP)
