Teaching University-Level Mathematics Using Mathematica

This paper considers the use of the computer algebra system Mathematica for teaching university-level mathematics subjects. Outlined are basic Mathematica concepts, connected with different mathematics areas: algebra, linear algebra, geometry, calculus and analysis, complex functions, numerical analysis and scientific computing, probability and statistics. The course “Information technologies in mathematics”, which involves the use of Mathematica, is also presented - discussed are the syllabus, aims, approaches and outcomes.

Use of the Maple System in Math Tuition at Universities

The following article explores the application of educational technologies at a University level and their contribution in enhancing the educational effectiveness. It discusses the capabilities of computer algebra systems, such as Maple. It is integrated in the math tuition of the Technical University (TU) in Varna and is used by its students during laboratory exercises.
