WOLFRAM |ALPHA IN EDUCATION
Original language description
There are many problems in mathematical education at faculties of economics. Scientists who deal with methods of teaching mathematics solve problems concerning primary and secondary schools. In this paper we describe appropriate integration of the online tool Wolfram|Alpha in mathematical lessons. We consider the inclusion of open source programs in mathematical lessons as an effective tool which enables students to achieve a higher level of knowledge and to overcome their difficulties with learning. We conducted research in which we compared results of two groups in a pre-credit test. One group attended extra special lessons in which the teacher helped them to use Wolfram| Alpha. To evaluate the teaching experiment we use the Two-Proportion z-test.
