Resequencing Skills and Concepts in Applied Calculus Using the Computer as a Tool.
Heid, M. Kathleen
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v19 n1 p3-25 Jan 1988

Three weeks were spent on skill development. Students showed better understanding of concepts and performed almost as well on routine skills. (PK)
