The students needed to adapt to the new techniques being employed for teaching with the OpenMath JavaBeans. While it seems self-evident that traditional and technological methodologies for teaching mathematics will share some aspects and be widely differing in others, the students themselves needed to adjust their approach to the materials. They gradually learned how to use selected software, the Internet and CD-ROMs to learn and explore mathematics. They investigated different ways in which they could express their knowledge on a computer; from using word processing programs to creating diagrams to making Web pages in HTML. Most importantly, they became comfortable using the computer and confident in their own abilities to navigate through and handle its different aspects.
