Using a Graphing Utility as a Catalyst for Connections.
Vonder Embse, Charles
Mathematics Teacher, v90 n1 p50-56 Jan 1997
Describes computer or calculator-graphing technology to develop parametric representations which help students connect mathematical topics from algebra and trigonometry through algebraic, graphical, and numerical representations. Computer or calculator graphing utilities instantly transform algebraic expressions into visual and numerical displays for verification, exploration, and experimentation. Explores ellipse and hyperbola graphed as pairs of functions, a family of graphs, and rotations. (PVD)
