Review text

The present book deals with some basic methods for teaching mathematics by using a scientif calculator with a version of DERIVE, a function editor, graphics, etc. It has been written according to the real experience of the author in the implementation of the Labclass (lab in class) experiment, carried out in Italy towards the end of the year 1997. The book contains eleven chapters which try to give a complete exposition of the main subjects of mathematics in the secondary school level. All these chapters follow a very experimental approach given by the characteristics of the modern calculator TI-92. A final section is devoted to conclusions. Fourteen titles are cited in the bibliography. Most of them are connected with pedagogics, usage of calculators and software.
