Teaching Algebra Chapter 6-Functions<\/h2><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Research around the teaching and learning of function has shown that students have difficulty defining and identifying functions. Students (and teachers) tend to focus on function as either just formulas or \u201cgraphs\u201d that \u201cpass the vertical line test,\u201d rather than the relationships represented. In this chapter, teachers examine definitions of function as well as representations of function using both dynamic algebra and dynamic geometry environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
