. As far as the amount of interaction and mentoring that I expected from my faculty research advisor, I did not know what to expect. From my experience in research, mentors vary significantly in their styles and approach of conducting their research and interacting with their students. At the beginning of the project, I second guessed almost every idea that I came up with and did not trust my judgment to do anything correctly or efficiently. I always ran whatever idea that I came up with by either David S. or Justin B. prior to acting on it, no matter how minor it seemed. About half-way into the research program I began to feel far more comfortable with the whole design process

Page 26.1614.9The majority of the responses for the choice(s) of technology was due to (1) ease of access; (2)simple usage; (3) not knowing other technologies. The interview responses regarding to thegraphing problem indicated the following outcomes for the majority of the participants:• Lack of ability to use the programming languages they learned (such as C, C++, Java, Excel) during their high school years for solving a graphing problem in mathematics;• Those who learned how to use a calculator in high school continued using it during their

Inaddition, the polysemy tool adds utilization of all terms and concepts in the database, and alsoprovides the ability to filter results by domain(s).
