Microsoft Student Graphing Calculator支持下的函数学习

函数作为中学数学的核心内容之一,历来是课程改革关注的焦点,同时也是中学生感到最难学的内容。数学新课程对函数内容设计进行了调整,力图遵循循序渐进、螺旋上升的原则进行设计,体现知识逻辑与学生认知逻辑的统一,而Microsoft Student Graphing Calculator恰好为实现这一理念提供了理想的工具与环境。     

Supporting Fourth Graders’ Ability to Interpret Graphs Through Real-Time Graphing Technology: A Preliminary Study

This study examined to what extent inquiry-based instruction supported with real-time graphing technology improves fourth grader??s ability to interpret graphs as representations of physical science concepts such as motion and temperature. This study also examined whether there is any difference between inquiry-based instruction supported with real-time graphing software and inquiry-based instruction supported with traditional laboratory equipment in terms of improving fourth graders?? ability to interpret motion and temperature graphs. Results of this study showed that there is a significant advantage in using real-time graphing technology to support fourth graders?? ability to interpret graphs.
