The Texas Instruments TI-92 as a vehicle for the teaching and learning of functions, graphs, and analytic geometry

Gregory D. Foley

From 1986-1990, the author was a principal investigator on the Ohio State University Calculator and Computer Pre-Calculus (C2PC) project, which developed a curriculum for advanced secondary school students to strengthen their problem-solving skills and improve their understanding of function, graphs, and analytic geometry. This paper explores the question, How should this curriculum be revised in light of the Texas Instruments TI-92, a hand-held hybrid of graphing calculator and computer?
