International Journal of Knowledge and Learning (IJKL), Vol. 4, No. 2/3, 2008

Abstract: Progress in computer programming suggests that teaching can be accompanied by numerical tools which can improve the attitudes of students towards mathematics. In this paper, a software tool for teaching numerical analysis is presented. It concerns the interpolation techniques that were suggested by Ghelardoni et al. (1995). The tool, used in a numerical methods applications course for students of the Engineering Faculty at the University of Salerno, indicates some improvement in the learning processes.
