The use of modern toolscan greatly enhance the learning experience by encouraging inquiry and deepening one’s understanding. In this chapter triangular, square, and polygonal-like numbers are explored in context using spreadsheets. The context provides the element of relevance that learners need in order to appreciate concepts that might otherwise seem abstract in nature.
Keywords: contextual problem solving, arithmetic sequences, polygon-like numbers
