Page: 1572
The purpose of this study is to examine the ways students engaged with a Vending Machine applet designed to problematize common misconceptions associated with the function concept. Findings indicated a need to redesign the applet to further disrupt students’ misconceptions of the concept of function. Design decisions for the redesigned applet and the new version will be shared.
