Why computational teaching? the advantage of using the maple software in teaching exact sciences

Abstract

The computational thinking becomes more and more an essential part of modern teaching. In this context, the resources, including the collection of online lessons plan, videos and other resources were created to provide a better understanding of CT. But the most important are software resources, because of their flexibility and wide application tools. The aim of the present paper is to have an introduction trip focusing on the advantages of using powerful software like MAPLE in computational teaching. Some examples are focused on representing the objects and basic algebraic manipulation commands, very successfully used in teaching sciences.
