Technology is the driving force in curriculum reform and is also a source of controversy. The ability of technology to provide visualization, numerical solutions and approximations, closed form symbolic solutions, and iterations has shifted curricula from focusing on mechanics and techniques to focusing on setting up problems and interpreting solutions. In short, technology has refocused curricula on the modeling process and away from the solution process…Another strong reason for incorporating technology in our core-course presentation is to prepare our students for the technological world in which they will graduate.
