The Design of a Computer Algebra System to Effect a More Relevant Mathematics Curriculum

这个项目将修改计算机代数系统（CAS），使其 一个更合适的，可用的微积分学习工具，然后预- 微积分学生。 PI儿童是第一个开发出 原型智能辅导系统和Macintosh图形 Maple接口。 拟议的新计算机技术和课程修订将 是师资培训和实验教学的基础 应用微积分，微积分预科和中学暑期工作坊 罗林斯学院的老师 该设备将用于 计算机实验室组件，和教师桌面访问CAS。 两名高级工作人员获得了斯隆管理学院的赠款。 发展CAS的基础。 受让人提供等额资金， 从非联邦来源获得的设备。

This project will modify computer algebra systems (CAS) to make it a more suitable, usable learning tool for calculus and then pre- calculus students. The PI Child is the first person to develop a prototypical intelligent tutoring system and a Macintosh graphic interface to Maple. The proposed new computer technology and curricular revisions will be the basis for faculty retraining and teaching of experimental applied calculus, pre-calculus, and summer workshops for secondary school teachers at Rollins College. The equipment will be used for a computer laboratory components, and faculty desktop access to CAS. Two of the senior staff have received grants from the Sloan Foundation to develop CAS. The grantee is providing an equal sum for the equipment obtained from non-Federal sources.
