Abstract

If we agree that the main goal of mathematics education is to develop both procedural and conceptual knowledge and to make links between the two, an important research domain is the analysis of appropriate pedagogical solutions achieving this goal at the university level. This paper presents CAL activities for enhancing university freshmen's understanding of the function concept, and summarizes some outcomes of these activities concerning these knowledge types.

Keywords: Procedural and conceptual knowledge, CAL activities, function concept.
