From the supplier: Vanderbilt Univ in Alabama is using Wolfram Research Inc's Mathematica 1.2 mathematical software to revitalize its approach to the teaching of mathematics. The Mathematica program offers a combination of programming tools, graphical, symbolic and numerical capabilities. To alter the perceived 'drudgery to insight ratio' in the direction of student insight and enhanced motivation, twelve professors designed courses based on Mathematica. The course design was manifested in four stages. Instructors used the software to demonstrate, to develop materials on the Notebook interface, to develop homework assignments and to design a series of Lecture and Practice Notebooks. Currently, eight of the 30 teachers in Vanderbilt's Mathematics Dept are using the software, which, along with its Apple Macintosh hardware base, has been upgraded.
