The Language of Change shows them how. A second book of 52 student projects - 326 pages. Software integrated into the development - both Mathematica 3.0 and Maple Vr5.
Project help notebooks - preliminary edition.
Modern computing with Mathematica 3.0 or Maple Vr5 makes it possible for beginning students to solve real problems while they are learning the basics. The book of Projects is very different from the shortened examples from those books. Modern computing, not envisioned 30 years ago, is integrated into the development and makes the real open-ended projects possible. 3-D Contours and the explicit graph. The flow of a vector field.
