Abstract
Some mathematics tools can input symbolic expressions, but output only numbers or graphs. CAS technology, however, can also output symbolic mathematical expressions. Researchers recommend that teachers use CAS features to focus on concepts, personalize the curricular sequence to fit student needs, and emphasize meaningful mathematical tasks. Although we await evidence based on the strongest research designs, studies throughout the world consistently report benefits when teachers integrate CAS with a focus on learning math concepts.
