Semiotic and Discursive Variables in CAS-Based Didactical Engineering.
Winslow, Carl
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v52 n3 p271-88 2003
Presents a semiotic analysis of the potential of computer algebra systems (CAS) for enabling mathematical activity on a conceptual level higher than usual. Illustrates examples of theoretical points from a development project in the context of a first year university course in calculus. Discusses how CAS may be used in a didactical analysis and in didactical engineering. (Author/KHR)
