Abstract
Teaching Applied Mathematics at Upper Level Technical Secondary Schools computerassisted
New challenges for teaching mathematics at Upper Level Technical Secondary Schools in Austria have caused changes in the way of teaching using new technology and new methods. Since 1998 mathematics teachers should work together with the teachers for the technical subjects even to prepare common final exams. Therefore it has been absolutely essential to confront students with programmable calculators, computer algebra systems on notebooks, personal computers or tablet computers at the very latest. These new technologies have developed the subject Applied Mathematics very quickly. In the meantime students must use technology for the final exams. Additional to this duty the implementation of the modularization of the upper level school systems has started during a fast moving internet world where many services like e-learning or e-books will be offered. A general main aim of the dissertation project will be to search for strategies to teach topics from the subject Applied Mathematics at different levels. Hence the following subgoals of the project will be to generate adequate materials for teaching firstly and to evaluate the implementation of these materials in special courses secondly. These courses are essential parts of the research projects EMMA and MAJA which focuses on the use of technology in Upper Level Technical schools strongly.
