Samenvatting
Learning By Discovery contains 26 laboratory modules that can be used as lab components in your course, or assigned as independent projects. The labs are written without specific computer commands, so students read mathematics, not text. Suggestions are provided for implementing these labs on Derive, Maple and MATHEMATICA ®. Many can be done on graphing calculators.
