A Taxonomy of Software for Mathematics Instruction
http://www.citejournal.org/articles/v5i2mathematics1.pdf A Taxonomy of Software for Mathematics Instruction The potential to use mathematics software to enhance student thinking and development is discussed and a taxonomy of software categories is outlined in this paper. Briefly, there are five categories of tool-based mathematics software that can be used fruitfully in a mathematics curriculum: (a) review and practice, (b) general, (c) specific, (d) environment, and (e) communication. A description of the affordances and constraints of the five types of software and how each facilitates different aspects of student learning clarifies the ways in which diverse off-the-shelf offerings can be used to address the goals of mathematics instruction, from building basic skills to exploring mathematical applications in the real world. |

TeX
http://www.math.vanderbilt.edu/~schectex/wincd/list_tex.htm TeX This page is concerned only with listing and briefly describing free TeX software available for Windows computers. TeX -- in its various flavors, including LaTeX -- is a typesetting language. It is used to prepare documents -- e.g., to prepare a Ph.D. thesis or other book, or an article that is submitted for publication in a research journal. If used properly, it produces beautiful documents. Originally it was used only for documents that were printed on paper, but nowadays it is also widely used to produce PDF files that can be viewed on computer screens. Tex is the standard language used by nearly all mathematicians nowadays. It is also used extensively by scholars and writers in many other fields -- chemistry, linguistics, chess, music -- anything that requires precise spacing and/or unusual fonts and/or the convenience of automatic cross-referencing. |

Matrix and Linear Algebra functions for EXCEL
http://digilander.libero.it/foxes/ Matrix and Linear Algebra functions for EXCEL Since birth, Excel appeared as a fantastic tool for studying and developing numeric calculus. Its worksheets, divided into rows and columns, resulted particularly adapted for matrix and linear calculus. From then on, lots and lots of new objects are included into Excel (not all of them very useful, indeed!) but, surprisingly, the matrix functions are substantially the same of many years ago. This little smart addin intends to cover this gap, improving the standard set of the functions for matrix calculus. |
