There are various websites, which provide information about how to use various graphing calculators in teaching and with the help of the contribution made, by these websites new technology can be used in the mathematics classes. With the help of this information various commands like the graphing, program and user defined functions can be…

The concepts of analyzing test results and implementing remediation are discussed. The root causes of failures and methods to identify and quantify them along with defining and prioritizing remediation are described.

Two technology-oriented activities are used successfully with entry-level geometry students during their study of symmetry. Reflection symmetry gives students opportunities to deepen their understanding of fundamental mathematical concepts like slope and symmetry, in a flexible and self-paced way.

Suggestions and ideas that enable teachers to take a closer look at students' thinking are discussed. A teacher should periodically reflect on his or her own classroom practices in order to increase attention on students' mathematical thinking.

The mathematical depth that is potentially present, even in simple problems is illustrated. An extended analysis of a problem that is an analysis from a mature mathematical perspective with careful attention paid to mathematical reasoning and to using good mathematical habits of mind is used.

The way in which a mathematical problem was used as a vehicle to introduce the joy of mathematical research to a high school student is demonstrated. The student was interested in learning about other classical problems delighting an eager high school student.

An activity that revolves around a data set that is created by students is described. The activity is divided into two parts that is exploration of simple linear regression and exploration of quadratic regression and cubic regression.

Spreadsheets to explore regression with an algebra 2 class in a medium-sized rural high school are presented. The use of spreadsheets can help students develop sophisticated understanding of mathematical models and use them to describe real-world phenomena.

Media Clips aims to offer readers contemporary, authentic applications of quantitative reasoning based on print or electronic media. Clips may be in text or graphic format, and clip sources may be either print or electronic media.

Directions for using a function called Mail Merge in Microsoft Office are mentioned. Using a spreadsheet and mail merge, allows one to create different assessments, complete with worked solutions, generate them on demand or save them for later use.

The Center for Improved Engineering and Science Education (CIESE) at Stevens Institute of Technology helps mathematics teachers to integrate and implement engaging and innovative collaborative lessons into their curriculum for illustrating complex mathematics concepts. CIESE has developed online projects that incorporate complex mathematics…

Greek philosopher mathematician, Aristarchus of Samos, in the third century B.C., proposed that the sun held in the central position, casting its light symmetrically outward on the other celestial bodies. He demonstrated the way in which a person could use simple observations and elementary geometry to measure on a cosmic scale.

Analysis of students' work on tasks relating to reflections, translations and rotations is discussed. Findings from research with regard to students' understanding of a subject would help teachers prepare for the class.

Constant feature is the calculator's feature to add subtract, multiply or divide the same number more than once without entering it each time. Application of the power of the constant feature to consumer mathematics, probability and iterative processes with problem solving implications are discussed.

As geometry involves lot of graphics, it acts as a link between mathematical model and real-world phenomena. An effective tool like geometry software can help students to explore the ellipse.
