The history behind the decision to require calculators on the AP Calculus examinations.
Armando Martínez-Cruz, Jose Contreras
How changing the goal in some problems leads into mathematical activities, enhanced with technology, such as problem solving, problem posing, conjecturing, and proving.
John Mahoney
Students can solve traditional algebra and calculus problems using computer algebra systems, but how will their use help students learn mathematics? This article contains five somewhat provocative axioms and many examples about the value of using CAS in schools to help students learn mathematics.

Ways in which handheld Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) may be used as pedagogical tools for the teaching and learning of algebraic manipulation.
Robyn Pierce, Kaye Stacey
Computer Algebra Systems can perform the algebraic manipulations for which we routinely teach and practice techniques in secondary schools. Their use will require redirecting teaching towards Algebraic Insight with Algebraic Expectation and Ability to Link Representations as the two main aspects. A framework is presented to guide curriculum and assessment and to monitor teaching.
Natalie Jakucyn, Kenneth Kerr
Some experiences and considerations for implementations of a CAS in a pre-calculus course.
