In the base unit 10, for example, as shown in FIG. 6 (M1), two graph function formulas [Y1 = X ³ + X ² -5X] [Y2 = X + 1] are input as graph drawing data (FIG. 6 ( MF)) and stored in the formula data memory 17a, and the range data is input (see FIG. 6 (MR1)) and stored in the range data memory 17d, and a graph drawing display is instructed by the “graph” key 18d. Then, graph data in accordance with the input functional expressions Y1 and Y2 and the range data is drawn and generated. As shown in FIG. 6 (MD1), the liquid crystal display unit (LCD) 20 and the OHP liquid crystal display unit 21 are displayed. It is displayed and OHP is displayed (step S1).

  Here, when a “send” key (not shown) on the keyboard 18 is operated, as shown in FIGS. 6A to 6C, the graphs stored in the formula data memory 17a and the range data memory 17d. Data for drawing (graph function formulas Y1, Y2 / range data) is transmitted from the wireless communication unit 22 and transferred to the terminals 23a to 23c (step S2).

  When the graph drawing data (graph function equations Y1, Y2 / range data) transferred from the parent device 10 is received in the terminals 23a to 23c, as shown in FIGS. 6 (A1) to (C1), The graph data Y1 and Y2 are drawn and displayed on the display units of the terminals 23a to 23c, and the process proceeds to the graph operation process in FIG. 5 (steps A1 and AB).

  In this graph operation processing (step B 1), graph function expression input / storage and graph drawing execution processing (step B 2 → B 3) according to the user operation, and on the specified graph according to the trace mode setting operation Trace pointer P display and trace coordinate X, Y display processing (step B4 → B5), range data change and graph screen scroll display processing (step B6 → B7) according to the screen scroll operation with the cursor keys, the trace mode In the set state, the movement display of the trace pointer P on the graph in accordance with the movement operation of the trace pointer P by the cursor key and the change display processing of the trace coordinates X and Y associated therewith (steps B8 → B9, B10) ) Is performed.

  Here, the teacher operating the base unit 10 uses the trace function for analyzing the relationship between the graph of the cubic function equation Y1 and the graph of the linear function equation Y2, and for the student of the terminal device 23a, the intersection on the left side is used. When an instruction is given to check the center intersection for the student of the terminal 23b and the right intersection for the student of the terminal 23c, as shown in FIG.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 6 (MD2), the graphs of the received graph function equations Y1 and Y2 are drawn and displayed according to the corrected range data (step S9).

  In this case, when the graph function expressions Y1, Y2,... Are received from the respective terminals 23a, 23b,..., The graphs corresponding to the respective graph expressions Y1, Y2,. , 23b,... Are identified and displayed in different display colors, and are displayed in a screen form such as a grid display stored and set in the display mode memory 17g (step S9).

  In the case of the graph function expressions Y1 and Y2 received from the terminals 23a and 23b described with reference to FIG. 6 (M2), the expression data memory is originally used as the graph function expressions Y1 and Y2 in the base unit 10. 17a, and the graph function equations Y1 and Y2 are both received from both terminals 23a and 23b, so that the identification display with different display colors is not performed.

  Then, the trace point (coordinate) data Pa [X = − is added to the graph drawing data (graph function formulas Y1, Y2 / range data / trace point (coordinate) data) transferred and received from the terminals 23a, 23b, and 23c. 3] If it is determined that [Y = -2], Pb [X = -0.2] [Y = 1.032], and Pc [X = 2.1] [Y = 3.171] are included (step S10 (Yes)) Then, it is determined whether or not each trace point (coordinate) data Pa, Pb, Pc is within the range of the current graph display range stored in the range data memory 17d (step S11), and is determined to be out of the range. If it is determined (step S11 (No)), the range data stored in the range data memory 17d is not only the maximum / minimum value of the cubic graph function expression Y1, but also the respective trace point (coordinate) data. Pa, Pb, and Pc are also included as feature points It is modified set to range data (see FIG. 6 (MR2)) (step S12).

  Then, as shown in FIG. 6 (MD2), the trace point (coordinate) data Pa [X = -3] [Y = -2], Pb [X = -0.2] [Y = 1.032], Pc [X = 2.1] [Y = 3.171] The trace pointers Pa, Pb, and Pc corresponding to the data transfer source terminals 23a, 23b, and 23c are displayed in black, white, and diagonal lines, respectively. The coordinate values corresponding to the pointers Pa, Pb, and Pc are also identified and displayed in blue, red, and green display forms (step S13).

  Thus, the graph drawing data (graph function formulas Y1, Y2 / range data / trace point (coordinate) data) transferred and received from the respective terminals 23a, 23b, 23c on the student side to the parent device 10 side. Are also corrected to optimum range data in which trace points (coordinates) corresponding to local maximum / minimum values and intersections of the graph function equations Y1 and Y2 are included as feature points, and the graph data Y1 and Y2 and the trace pointers Pa , Pb, Pc and the respective trace coordinates [Xa, Ya] [Xb, Yb] [Xc, Yc] are synthesized and displayed in OHP.

  Therefore, not only the feature points of each graph data Y1, Y2,..., But also all the trace pointers Pa, Pb,... As the feature points designated and displayed by the original operation at each terminal 23a, 23b,. OHP can be displayed as the included graph drawing data.

  In the terminals 23a, 23b,..., Every time a change is made to the graph drawing data by the graph operation processing (step AB), the data is transmitted and transferred to the parent device 10 (step A2). On the side, the movement operation state of the trace pointers Pa, Pb,... By the respective terminals 23a, 23b,... Held by the student is drawn in real time and displayed in OHP (steps S3 to S13, SB → S3). .
