  • Dr. Bernhard Kutzler

    Dr. Bernhard Kutzler, renowned author, lecturer, and expert in pedagocial use of computer symbolic algebra, now has his own web site located at http://www.kutzler.com. Also, his books can be found at http://series.bk-teachware.com. The series aims at supporting teachers to teach with technology, notably with the TI-92, DERIVE, CABRI, and GEOMETRE II.

  • DERIVE plus TI-92 User Group Newsletter

    This nifty newsletter (DNL) is published four times each year and now includes many TI-92 articles. It is international in scope and features contributions from colleagues in many countries. The goals of the DNL include articles on new content and didactical approaches in the teaching and learning of mathematics possible with DERIVE or the TI-92 computer algebra systems. For subscription information e-mail the founder and editor Josef Boehm at: nojo.boehm@pgv.at.

  • The International Journal of Computer Algebra in Mathematics Education (formerly The International Derive Journal)

    The first and third issues of this renamed (and more general) journal (IJCAME) are devoted to the TI-92 hand-held computer algebra systems. The first issue (Vol. 4, no. 1) contains eight excellent articles on the TI-92 by B. Kutzler, C. Leinbach, J. Berry, P. Fortin, P. Drijvers, B. Keller, C. Russell, K. Shay, and M.A. Connors, as well as an editorial by the Guest Editors of the two special editions, Bert Waits, Frank Demana, and B. Kutzler. The third issue of IJCAME will contain eight more articles about the TI-92 in mathematics education.
