We introduce an analog device designed for laboratory activities related to calculus. Such a device recollects the legacy of historical instruments to find the area by solving inverse tangent problems (integraphs), that analytically corresponds to the resolution of differential equations. We present an analysis of its exploration by a high-school mathematical teacher with experience in mathematical machines.

Abstract
We introduce an analog device designed for laboratory activities related to calculus. Such a device recollects the legacy of historical instruments to find the area by solving inverse tangent problems (integraphs), that analytically corresponds to the resolution of differential equations. We present an analysis of its exploration by a high-school mathematical teacher with experience in mathematical machines.File in questo prodotto:
