It's been over a year since T.H.E. Journal profiled Math software so, here are some of the latest releases in this hotly contested category. A vendors directory follows at the bottom of the page. Aces ...

A new study suggests the students who used dynamic geometry software were more successful in discovering new mathematical ideas than when they used static, paper-based diagrams. A new study co-written ...

A movement is afoot among some mathematicians in academia to make the switch from expensive, closed-source calculation software to free, open-source alternatives. In a recent opinion piece, posted in ...

Math gets a bad reputation for no good reason. After all, it’s a universal language and it applies to so many areas of life. Learning math can be challenging, and teaching it can be equally ...

At one time, we used GW Basic to crunch through them. But each equation had to be individually rewritten to solve for a different variable. And each variable solved for had to be isolated. But the ...

• It is relatively easy to find math packages devised for college coursework and research that can be repurposed to do meaningful tasks in engineering. • Some kinds of academic software is flexible ...

Relatively little about mathematics has changed since we were calculating angles on an HP 11C back in sophomore year. Everything from distributive law to integral identities remain as true today as ...
