Teaching Mathematics in the PC Lab--The Students' Viewpoints
Schmidt, Karsten; Kohler, Anke
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v44 n3 p317-331 2013
The Matrix Algebra portion of the intermediate mathematics course at the Schmalkalden University Faculty of Business and Economics has been moved from a traditional classroom setting to a technology-based setting in the PC lab. A Computer Algebra System license was acquired that also allows its use on the students' own PCs. A survey was carried out to analyse the students' attitudes towards the use of technology in mathematics teaching. (Contains 4 tables and 5 figures.)
