Abstract

This study suggests that how the techniques of teaching abstract algebra at undergraduate level can be improved. With the help of examples it proposes that a better understanding of abstract algebra can be developed by adopting computer algebra system (CAS). It also, proposes a framework which describes some objectives of teaching algebra and suggests some of the hardware and software to be utilized.
