say they know how to solve the equations and it is just that they have trouble with“word problems.” The problem is, of course, that in engineering, virtually all problems are wordproblems. Because of the advent of inexpensive, powerful computers to crunch numbers, it isnow very important that people be able to correctly interpret and express technical information.However, empirical evidence shows that students’ ability in this area has declined, rather thanimproved. This paper describes some specific issues in math literacy and the use of technology toaddress them. Examples are drawn from a junior-level data analysis course having a largefraction of international students. However, these issues are common in most engineeringcourses and occur
