dc.description Abstract : The use of technologies in education has become vitally important and necessary in today’s learning process. Students could learn better especially the more difficult subjects with the help of technologies. One such technology which is portable and relatively affordable is graphing calculators. The use of graphing calculator in mathematics education has become synchronous in daily classroom teaching and as an examination tool. A graphing calculator is a technological tool that can process the mechanical steps of procedure in solving mathematical problems but it does not provide the interpretation or explanation for the answer obtained. Since there is no more mechanical steps involved in the use of graphing calculator, the examination questions should be designed such that the questions will test the students’ higher order thinking skills. Numerous researches have been conducted in the use of graphing calculator in the area of learning mathematics. However, very few researches have been done in the area of question designing by incorporating the use of graphing calculator. The purpose of this paper is to explore the area of examination questions designing by incorporating graphing calculators. The focus of this paper will be to share the ideas and experiences on how to design examination questions that incorporate the use of graphing calculators.
