Abstract

In this issue of the SymMath column we introduce three new Mathcad documents, one new Mathematica document, and three translations from Mathcad into either Maple or Mathematica. The new and translated documents demonstrate how higher order cognitive skills can be incorporated into teaching materials that both instruct and support student learning.
