Richard X. Thripp at 2011-04-23T17:24:46.One thing that concerns me is the math courses have gotten much harder because you can’t use a graphing calculator anymore (except on stats and possibly chemistry). The rationale is the other universities (FSU, UCF, etc.) don’t allow graphing calculators on their math exams so DSC shouldn’t either, but I found using a computerized tool on math problems gave me a top-down perspective on math rather than a bottom-up perspective, and as such made the course material easier to understand and retain.
