"At its best, technology allows
students to explore and discover mathematical concepts to
aid in their understanding. These books provide a wide variety
of engaging activities that can help students learn mathematical
concepts with the [TI-89] and TI-92. Students and teachers
will enjoy throughout these books the historical vignettes
and cartoons that motivate, enlighten, and entertain. The
pages are filled with stories, applications, mathematical
discussion, examples, solutions, exercises, and investigations.
With or without the [graphing calculator], students-can
benefit from the wealth of connections that are made in
bringing historical perspective and modern technology together
in solving interesting problems. Keying sequences guide
students through the [TI-89 and] TI-92 menus while the accompanying
discussion develops the mathematics."
