One of the most effective uses of software technology is the seamless relationship between graphs and their functions. Algebraic functions essentially come alive with the use of the software, allowing students to gain a greater understanding between the algebraic symbols, their graphs, and the meanings of the graphs (Mackrell & Johnston-Wilder, 2005).
