Where other software falls short, focusing on only one aspect of
education, Mathematica and other Wolfram Research technologies are
multi-talented. Educators can use a single program to solve complex
problems, generate classroom materials, create presentations and demos,
and enable their students to produce professional-quality reports.
Here are a few examples of how Mathematica is being used in classrooms
around the world:

Demonstrating to the Class
 |
|
Classroom demonstrations come alive with the vivid graphics and
interactive capabilities of Mathematica
and webMathematica.
Exciting 3D visualizations, formulas, and animations on screen help students
quickly gain a deeper understanding of concepts first hand.

| Structured Problem-Solving in Class
|
|
Used as a problem-solving tool, Mathematica reinforces the concepts
behind each solution. Students leave the classroom not only with valuable
experience but also with a more confident and comprehensive knowledge of
the technical material. |

|
| Student Use as a Tool
|
|
In many universities, students learn Mathematica as a
general-purpose tool to apply throughout their technical
explorations. Studies show that this enhances practical problem-solving
skills, so courses can be ordered by conceptual difficulty instead of
computational complexity.

| Building Courseware
|
|
Mathematica is the ideal development environment for creating
flexible courseware structured to meet the specific needs of any classroom setting.
Mathematica's notebook interface, graphics, and functions--all
built within an intuitive programming framework--help students learn and
retain more material in less time. |
