Can information technology change attitude of the student in the teaching of mathematics?

The article shows a specific example of extracurricular activities conducted in secondary school, how the graphing calculator helped the first class student in learning mathematics to solve a very difficult task (math problem): How many elements has the equation: a x = log a x. The article describes the reasoning and attitude of the student who voluntarily of his own accord, inspired by other students to experiment, putting, generalizing and verifying hypotheses coped with the solution of this task. It describes the impact of this teaching mean that triggered activity and aroused student’s interest with the task on the degree of knowledge and skills in mathematics, the student’s skills in the use of mathematical language, self-reliance in solving a mathematical problem.
