Brown, Susan A.; Mehilos, Megan – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2010
Many students and adults feel that algebra is merely the shuffling of symbols. The three interrelated concepts of variable, expression, and equation are central to beginning algebra, and in recent years, helping students understand the idea of a variable has been emphasized. Although graphing calculators help students solve equations, it is also…

Gratzer, William; Krishnan, Srilal – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2008
The revolution of technology in education has heralded a new wave of learning styles and in some cases total dependence on technology. Yet, statistics reveal no significant improvement in student performance in Mathematics and a downward trend in basic algebra skills. The major impediment in the learning process is lack of understanding of the…

Kieran, Carolyn; Saldanha, Luis – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2005
Equivalence of algebraic expressions is at the heart of transformational work in algebra. However, we know very little about students' understanding of equivalence. This study is part of a larger project that explores the use of CAS as a didactical tool for promoting both technical and conceptual growth in high school algebra with tasks specially…
