Evaluation of the Use of Numerical Tools in Teaching Calculus Concepts
Mathematics — 2025, Undergraduate
This study evaluated the use of numerical and graphing tools in teaching calculus concepts. Students taught with tool-assisted activities were compared with those taught conventionally using a pre-test and post-test design and questionnaires. The findings revealed that tool integration improved conceptual understanding and engagement, with greater gains on visual and applied items. The study observed that tool misuse could distract without structured activities. It recommends structured integration of computational tools in calculus instruction.
