Computers in the Teaching of the Mathematical Sciences in Higher Education

UNIVERSITY OF KENT AT CANTERBURY
2-4 th September 1986

 Many new  developments  are  taking  place  in  the  use of
computers for teaching aspects of the mathematical sciences. 
Most  notable are the programs for Computational Mathematics
and Statistics  but software for Applied Mathematics and for
Pure Mathematics is  also  being  written.  In addition much
work is also being done to  develop  software  for  teaching
mathematics  to  scientists and engineers.  Some software is
being designed for  lecture  demonstration;  some  is  being
written to accompany texts and some is being written in  the
form of integrated packages running on a network.
 A   meeting  is  to  be  held  to  discuss,  and  whereever
possible  ,  to  demonstrate   these  developments. Generous
periods  of  time will be allocated  in  the  programme  for
participants to look  at  the demonstrations and to exchange
ideas with others working in the same area.
