Computer technology, as an effective means for precisely simulating mathematical concepts and problems, could meet the need for new visual approaches to mathematics education. Computer generated imagery can not only accurately display two- and three-dimensional illustrations from mathematical models, but high precision images are economically…

College teachers attending an NSF-sponsored summer workshop (1974) produced a series of films showing computer displays of mathematical problems and phenomena. These instructional materials are organized into four units: (1) functions and graphs; (2) analysis; (3) probability, statistics, and simulation; and (4) mathematical models. They are keyed…

The planning and management of educational systems has been examined widely in the last decades despite the lack of a standard research method and a unified underlying theory. Research based on quantitative analysis yields data that may be processed using the graphic capabilities of computers. The combination of numerical data and computer…
