摘要：This article covers how a computer algebra system (CAS) <i>wxMaxima</i> can be explored for teaching single-variable and multivariable calculus to Korean digital natives. We present several examples where <i>wxMaxima</i> can handle calculus problems easily, not straightforwardly but still successfully with some human intervention, and unsuccessfully. By soliciting qualitative feedback on students’ experience in exploiting the CAS, we gathered a mixed reaction. Although some students commented positively, the majority seemed to be resistant to embracing a new technological tool.
