Most software packages for the teaching of mathematics contain only a limited set of tools, utilities, and procedures. Therefore we often have to use more than one computer program to teach different subjects. This situation makes teaching very inefficient: We need to teach our students how to use each tool, we need to teach different, environment-dependent strategies for solving problems, and ...
