Abstract | Function Probe is a multi-representational software for Apple Macintosh computers. It was designed to allow students to approach problems in different ways and/or use different representations. This case study describes a 16-year-old student as he creates a path among a variety of representations of transformations of functions while using the Function Probe computer software. The model used in this study inverts the order of the traditional model of teaching about transformation of functions, by starting with visualization of graphs, then focusing on relationships between graphs and tabular values, and finally, focusing on relationships between graphs and algebraic representation.
