Currently, programming languages, graphing software, spreadsheets, geometry software, computer algebra systems, and other kinds of new tools for the learning of mathematics are widely disseminated. Originally, optimism dominated the debate: technology would free the student from calculation and procedural drudgery, and would enable mathematics education to focus on more relevant issues such as realistic applications, modeling, conceptual understanding, and higher order skills. Anoften implicit-underlying idea was that technical skills and conceptual understanding could be separated in the learning.

As a systems theorist and adherent to social constructionist views, the metaphor plays an important role in constructing realities, and the framework that came to mind for structuring and presenting my thesis was that of the concerto from the Western classical music genre. In this paper I will explain how this metaphor was used for organising and structuring my research and presenting a systems paradigm as a coherent whole. African music metaphor for any other research object or content. In such an instance the polyrhythmic structure may also vary and more or less voices/rhythms may be 'heard'. Schalkwyk, D.Phil (Psychology), is currently a senior lecturer in the Department of Psychology at the University of Pretoria. I lecture to undergraduate students, medical students on first year level, and to postgraduate students, in Developmental Psychology, Personality psychology and Qualitative Research methodology, in which I focus on the development of an enquiring and critical orientation necessary for participating in the discource of the scientific dialogue in psychology. My specific area of interest for research is person-music interactive systems and the multitude of contexts where individuals and groups transact with music. In this regard, I am involved in several research projects, consultation, and have contributed several papers both at national and international conferences. I am also extensively involved regionally and nationally in the development, planning and implementation of training programmes for Social Sciences and the Humanities, which constitutes my other main area of interest. In this regard I serve on various committees and undertake research projects pertaining to outcomes
