In this paper, a technique is presented for applying MathCAD environment in the learning process by investigating some problems of functions behavior and graphs plotting. Specific features of the graph representation in MathCAD are given when there are points of function discontinuity. The tasks and examples being solved are methodical recommendations for doing homework. The authors consider them as one of the forms of students’ education organization and residual school mathematics knowledge revealing in first-year students. They give the methodical instructions on the applied programs package use for students teaching and show the prospects of their application, which increases the efficiency of the material perception. The simplicity of MathCAD interface made this system one of the most popular among mathematics support systems and, certainly, the most common among students. Active use of software will create the necessary professional competencies for students of technical specialties. The content of the article will be useful for teachers and students preparing for classes.
