Hogben, Leslie – 1988
The intent of this project was to develop a course for mathematics graduate students at Iowa State University. They would design and write computer programs for use by undergraduate mathematics students, and then offer the course and actually produce the software. Phase plane graphics for ordinary differential equations was selected as the topic.…

Karakirik, Erol; Durmus, Soner – Online Submission, 2005
The development of abstract mathematical thinking is an essential part of mathematics and the geometry is regarded as a suitable domain to serve this purpose. As different technologies such as computers and graphing calculators are widely being used, curriculum developers on geometry should take these technologies into consideration. Several…

Kantowski, Mary Grace – Viewpoints in Teaching and Learning, 1981
The microcomputer has great potential for making high school geometry more stimulating and more easily understood by the students. The microcomputer can facilitate instruction in both the logico-deductive and spatial-visual aspects of geometry through graphics representations, simulation of motion, and its capability of interacting with the…

Dennis, John Richard – 1969
A developmental curriculum project is summarized which investigates the feasibility of using the PLATO computer assisted instruction (CAI) system to assist in the presentation of material in a geometry course which requires pictorial responses by the student. Geometrical concepts such as congruence, symmetry, perpendicularity, parallel, triangle,…

Hickernell, Fred; Proskurowski, Wlodek – Collegiate Microcomputer, 1985
Discusses conception, design, implementation, and evaluation of a calculus course that utilizes a multi-user microcomputer system with graphics terminals. The numerical and utility routines of the software are briefly described, and examples of several types of calculus problems that can be solved utilizing the system are reviewed. (Author/MBR)
