Using CAS and Interactive Geometry (IG) to Develop Algebraic Skills

Abstract

In this tutorial you will experience some learning sequences that utilise interactive Geometry and CAS to first develop an understanding and some visual images of algebraic identities and then to develop skills in using the identities. The IG and CAS of the CASIO ClassPad 300 will be used as well as a third party application called ALGY that runs on both the ClassPad 300 and WIndows.
