This study is an empirical investigation of 11th graders at a German high school (Gymnasium). Working over a 24-hour period in a computer lab, we investigated students' use of quadratic functions with `Derive', and trigonometric functions with `Mathplus' (or `Theorist' for Macintosh). We were particularly interested in the working styles of students while they solved problems and looked for changes in these styles, as compared to traditional paper and pencil activities. While students worked on the computer, their activities (such as inputs from the keyboard, menu choices or mouse movements) were saved by a special program, which ran in the `background'. We are interested in the possibilities of developing a research method based on these `computer protocols'. The study should be seen as an exploratory study for developing hypotheses for further empirical investigations.This revised version was published online in September 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date. 相似文献

We explore students choice of using computer algebra systems (CAS) in problem-solving relative to their self-reported attitude towards learning mathematics with CAS. Our research design is a case study of nine Norwegian upper-secondary mathematics students with a wide range of attitude towards CAS. Our findings on routine problems indicate that (1) students use CAS whenever students perceive the problem as time-consuming regardless of their attitude towards CAS, and (2) students attitude affects their use of CAS whenever students perceive the problem as non-time-consuming. Norway, among other countries, has implemented CAS as an essential digital resource towards learning mathematics in upper-secondary school. Our discussion focuses on the implications of our findings have on local mathematics educators and national policy-makers. 相似文献

In this paper, we discuss examples of assignments for a course in discrete mathematics for undergraduate students majoring in business informatics. We consider several problems with computer-based solutions and discuss general strategies for using computers in teaching mathematics and its applications. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of our approach, we conducted an anonymous survey. The results of the survey provide evidence that our approach contributes to high outcomes and aligns with the course aims and objectives. 相似文献

This study examines how two teachers taught differentiation using a hand held computer algebra system, which made numerical,graphical
and symbolic representations of the derivative readily available. The teachers planned the lessons together but taught their
Year 11 classes in very different ways. They had fundamentally different conceptions of mathematics with associated teaching
practices,innate ‘privileging’ of representations, and of technology use. This study links these instructional differences
to the different differentiation competencies that the classes acquired. Students of the teacher who privileged conceptual
understanding and student construction of meaning were more able to interpret derivatives. Students of the teacher who privileged
performance of routines made better use of the CAS for solving routine problems. Comparison of the results with an earlier
study showed that although each teacher's teaching approach was stable over two years, each used technology differently with
further experience of CAS. The teacher who stressed understanding moved away from using CAS, whilst the teacher who stressed
rules,adopted it more. The study highlights that within similar overall attainment on student tests, there can be substantial
variations of what students know. New technologies provide more approaches to teaching and so greater variations between teaching
and the consequent learning may become evident.

Teaching mathematics in university levels is one of the most important fields of research in the area of mathematics education. Nevertheless, there is little information about teaching knowledge of mathematics university teachers. Pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) provides a suitable framework to study knowledge of teachers. The purpose of this paper is to make explicit the perception of mathematics university teachers about PCK. For this purpose, a phenomenological study was done. Data resources included semi-structured interviews with 10 mathematics university teachers who were in different places of the mathematics university teaching experience spectrum. Data analysis indicated a model consisting of four cognitive themes which are mathematics syntactic knowledge, knowledge about mathematics curriculum planning, knowledge about students' mathematics learning and knowledge about creating an influential mathematics teaching–learning environment. Besides, it was found out that three contextual themes influenced on PCK for teaching mathematics in university levels which were the nature of mathematics subjects, university teachers' features and terms of learning environment. 相似文献

This paper examines the process through which students learn to make functional use of computer algebra systems (CAS), and
the interaction between that process and the wider mathematical development of students. The result of ‘instrumentalising‘
a device to become a mathematical tool and correspondingly ‘instrumenting’ mathematical activity through use of that tool
is not only to extend students' mathematical technique but to shape their sense of the mathematical entities involved. These
ideas have been developed within a French programme of research – as reported by Artigue in this issue of the journal – which
has explored the integration of CAS – typically in the form of symbolic calculators – into the everyday practice of mathematics
classrooms. The French research –influenced by socio-psychological theorisation of the development of conceptual systems-
seeks to take account of the cultural and cognitive facets of these issues, noting how mathematical norms – or their absence
– shape the mental schemes which students form as they appropriate CAS as tools. Instrumenting graphic and symbolic reasoning
through using CAS influences the range and form of the tasks and techniques experienced by students, and so the resources
available for more explicit codification and theorisation of such reasoning. This illuminates an influential North American
study– conducted by Heid – which French researchers have seen as taking a contrasting view of the part played by technical
activity in developing conceptual understanding. Reconsidered from this perspective, it appears that while teaching approaches
which ‘resequence skills and concepts’ indeed defer – and diminish –attention to routinised skills, the tasks introduced in
their place depend on another –albeit less strongly codified – system of techniques, supporting more extensive and active
theorisation. The French research high lights important challenges which arise in instrumenting classroom mathematical activity
and correspondingly instrumentalising CAS. In particular, it reveals fundamental constraints on human-machine interaction
which may limit the capacity of the present generation of CAS to scaffold the mathematical thinking and learning of students.

This article suggests a framework to organise a cluster of variables that are associated with students' effective use of computer algebra systems (CAS) in mathematics learning. Based on a review of the literature and from the authors' own teaching experience, the framework identifies the main characteristics of students' interactions with CAS technology and how these may be used to monitor students' developing use of CAS; from this, the framework may be used to plan teaching in order to gain greater benefit from the availability of CAS. Four case studies describing students' development over a semester are reported. These demonstrate a variety of combinations of technical competencies and personal attributes. They indicate the importance of both the technical and personal aspects but suggest that negative attitudes rather than technical difficulties can limit the effective use of CAS. Finally practical suggestions are given for teaching strategies which may promote effective use of CAS.This revised version was published online in September 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date. 相似文献

Within mathematics education, classroom teachers, educational researchers, and instructional designers share the common goals of understanding and improving the teaching and learning of mathematics. Teachers work to help students learn; researchers study how people learn and teach mathematics; and designers develop instructional materials to support teachers and students. Each community (of teachers, of researchers, and of designers) develops its own perspectives, methods, and expertise. Too seldom, however, do practitioners have the opportunity to share their knowledge across communities. This first-person, retrospective case study speaks to the challenges and rewards of building bridges among these three communities by charting the evolution of an instructional activity (using graphing software to explore slope) through four cycles of teaching, research, and design. Initially separate, the three perspectives of teacher, researcher, and designer begin to interact as the worksite moves from the university laboratory to the author's classroom and then to other teachers’ classrooms. Many of these interactions are fruitful, resulting in new insights and strategies that strengthen the final product and inform the practitioner. At the same time, some tensions arise, particularly between teaching and research, highlighting fundamental differences between these fields. Lessons from this case study suggest implications for collaborations among teachers, researchers, and designers. 相似文献

In a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) context, the decision maker needs to provide his preferences over a set of decision alternatives and constructs a preference relation and then use the derived priority vector of the preference to rank various alternatives. This paper proposes an integrated approach to rate decision alternatives using data envelopment analysis and preference relations. This proposed approach includes three stages. First, pairwise efficiency scores are computed using two DEA models: the CCR model and the proposed cross-evaluation DEA model. Second, the pairwise efficiency scores are then utilized to construct the fuzzy preference relation and the consistent fuzzy preference relation. Third, by use of the row wise summation technique, we yield a priority vector, which is used for ranking decision-making units (DMUs). For the case of a single output and a single input, the preference relation can be directly obtained from the original sample data. The proposed approach is validated by two numerical examples. 相似文献

Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) can be applied to investigate large-scale socio-cognitive-technical systems. Viewing such systems from a multi-agent social and organizational perspective allows innovative computational policy analysis. Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) has taken such a perspective to produce an integrated model of the electric power and natural gas markets. This model focuses on the organizational interdependencies between these markets. These organizational interdependencies are being strained by fundamental market transformations. 相似文献

We discuss the nonparametric approach to profit efficiency analysis at the firm and industry levels in the absence of complete price information. Two new insights are developed. First, we measure profit inefficiency in monetary terms using absolute shadow prices. Second, we evaluate all firms using the same input–output prices. This allows us to aggregate firm-level profit inefficiencies to the overall industry inefficiency. Besides the measurement of profit losses, the presented approach enables one to recover absolute price information from quantity data. We conduct a series of Monte Carlo simulations to study the performance of the proposed approach in controlled production environments. 相似文献

This paper considers the solution of the Milne problem of radiative transfer with isotropic scattering in a continuous stochastic medium. Properties of the medium are assumed to be continuous random functions of the spatial dimensions. The available solutions - in literature - for this stochastic integro-differential equation (SIDE) are represented only by the ensemble average of the radiant energy density. In this paper, a developed algorithm, based on the implementation of the random variable transformation technique together with an integral transformation to the stochastic properties, is introduced. A complete stochastic solution represented by the probability-density function (p.d.f) of the radiant energy density is obtained. Using the closed form of the p.d.f, the nth moment of the stochastic solution is evaluated. In realization of this work, Exponential and Gaussian statistics for the medium properties are assumed. Results are physically acceptable and found to be compatible with those in the literature. 相似文献

IDR (s) is a family of fast algorithms for iteratively solving large nonsymmetric linear systems. With cluster computing and in particular with Grid computing, the inner product is a bottleneck operation. In this paper, three techniques are investigated for alleviating this bottleneck. First, a recently proposed IDR (s) algorithm that is highly efficient and stable is reformulated in such a way that it has a single global synchronization point per iteration step. Second, the so‐called test matrix is chosen so that the work, communication, and storage involving this matrix is minimized in multi‐cluster environments. Finally, a methodology is presented for a‐priori estimation of the optimal value of s using only problem and machine‐based parameters. Numerical experiments applied to a 3D convection–diffusion problem are performed on the DAS‐3 Grid computer, demonstrating the effectiveness of our approach.

A new IPM (interior point method) for LPs has been discussed in Murty (Algorithmic Oper Res 1:3–19, 2006; Tutorials in OR, INFORMS, pp 1–36, 2006) based on a centering step that attempts to maximize the radius of the
inscribed sphere with center on the current objective plane, and using descent directions derived without using matrix inversions.
The method is a descent method and may be called the sphere method for LP. In contrast to all the existing IPMs which involve heavy matrix inversions in each step, an advantage of the new method
is that it can be implemented with no matrix inversions, or using them only sparingly. We discuss various techniques for implementing
this method. These implementations offer the prospect of extending the superior performance of existing software systems for
LP, to models that do not have the property of being very sparse. 相似文献
