Abstract
Since 1972, math-teachers at Shokei Jogakuin Senior High School have been using computers in their classes. In 1982, they changed from FORTRAN to APL, because APL had more possibilities for enriching math classes. At present, they are using APL Graphics to help students grasp abstract concepts in Mathematics.
This paper discusses the use of APL Graphics in the classroom by both teachers and students, and the evaluation of its value in teaching.
