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…

Lavicza, Zsolt – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2007
Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) are increasing components of university-level mathematics education. However, little is known about the extent of CAS use and the factors influencing its integration into university curricula. Pre-university level studies suggest that beyond the availability of technology, teachers' conceptions and cultural elements…

Lavicza, Zsolt – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2009
The use of Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) is becoming increasingly important and widespread in mathematics research and teaching. In this paper, I will report on a questionnaire study enquiring about mathematicians' use of CAS in mathematics teaching in three countries; the United States, the United Kingdom, and Hungary. Based on the responses…
