Title
Computer symbolic math & education: a radical proposal
Abstract
None of the commonly-taught programming languages is very relevant to the typical elementary-school through college math curriculum, but computer symbolic math is relevant to most of that curriculum. Consequently, a vast opportunity for beneficial mutual reinforcement and cross-motivation between math and computer education is being squandered. This paper substantiates these claims, explains their major causes, then proposes remedies.
