How do students
interact with
Touch is imperative
technology?
education will become a major
market for touch and pen-enabled
devices. Younger children just
entering school find direct
manipulation on the screen a natural
way to interact with their computers.
Consensus among the Gartner client
U.S. school districts is that over half,
and possibly as many as 75 percent,
will be specifying touch and/or pen
input within the next five years,"

Middle-grade math
Situation: Teaching a
lesson on the
Pythagorean Theorem
(a2+b2=c2)
First we show students
how to solve for a
hypotenuse (side c)
using values 1 and 2.
Then we ask them to use
3 and 4 and point out
that the result is a
Pythagorean Triple.
Pocket Demo
Linear Algebra
Situation: Illustrate
interplay between
symbolic and graphical
representations
First explain basics of
graphing (e.g. axes,
points, etc.)
Next have students
predict what happens
when they move the
line or change slope.
1. Launch Linear
Explorer
2. Show X and Y axes,
explain y=aX+b
describe a line (a is
slope, b is y
intercept)
3. Press the Eq button
4. Note that a is 1 and b
is 0
5. What happens as you
move the line?
6. Can you find y=1X+3?

First, provide
students with an
equation
Second, ask students
to experiment with
that equation and
explain the changes
1. Launch Advance
Graphing
2. Enter plot:
COS(X)=COS(Y)
3. Press Plot
4. Press Menu, Defn
to see the equation
5. Click on the
equation and
change it
6. How and why did it
change?
