CPMP-Tools Description

CPMP-Tools will provide users with a toolkit developed from the ground up with specific curriculum applications in mind and then embedded in a ready-to-use manner into the curriculum. Tools were developed for each strand of the curriculum. Tools and their functionality are organized by course to focus on the intended mathematics and to reduce the steepness of the learning curve. Tools share similar menu screens and interface promoting learning transfer from one tool to another. Tools are built using Java WebStart, which permits safe, easy, and reliable distribution of software and software updates across different types of computers. Main features: Algebra tools include an electronic spreadsheet and a computer algebra system (CAS) that produces tables and graphs of functions, manipulates algebraic expressions, and solves equations and inequalities. Geometry tools include an interactive drawing tool for constructing, measuring, manipulating, and transforming geometric figures, a simple object-oriented programming language for creating animation effects, and a set of custom tools for studying geometric models of physical mechanisms, tessellations, and special shapes. Statistics tools include tools for graphic display and analysis of univariate and bivariate data, simulation of probabilistic situations, and mathematical modeling of quantitative relationships. Discrete Math tools include tools for constructing, manipulating, and analyzing vertex-edge graphs and their representations as adjacency matrices.
