Using Computer Algebra Systems as Instructional Tools
Keywords:
Computer Technology in Education, Computer Algebra Systems, Instructional Computer Applications, Physics Teaching with Computer Algebra Systems.Abstract
Computer algebra systems are in the agenda of the educators since many years. Besides the positive remarks negative notions are reported by the researchers. Performing them as pedagogical tools is directly proportional with the performance of the instructors. In this study, after reviewing the literature related to the instructional applications done with these systems, some examples that we performed during our undergraduate physics lessons is given. The points as listed at the end must be considered in order to make a well-designed CAS aided math and physics course.
