The Learning and Teaching of Transcendental Functions through Sound and Music

In this paper, we present a new environment of learning and teaching of trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions, the most difficult parts for students to learn among functions, through sound and music, students like the most. First, by using sound and music, we try to arouse student's interest. Second, we let students see and hear properties of transcendental functions so that students can understand and remember them easily. Finally we encourage students to compose their favorite song using transcendental functions so that they can experience the practicality of transcendental functions.
