Buteau, Chantal; Jarvis, Daniel H.; Lavicza, Zsolt – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2014
In this article, we outline the findings of a Canadian survey study (N = 302) that focused on the extent of computer algebra systems (CAS)-based technology use in postsecondary mathematics instruction. Results suggest that a considerable number of Canadian mathematicians use CAS in research and teaching. CAS use in research was found to be the…
