How do effective teachers


teach?
Formative Assessment
a range of formal and
informal assessment
procedures employed by
teachers during the
learning process in order
to modify teaching and
learning activities to
improve student
attainment. - Wikipedia

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,"

What do students expect?


Battery life
The watt-hour per
kilogram (SI
abbreviation: Wh/kg)
is a unit of specific
energy commonly used
to measure the density
of energy in batteries
and other capacitors.
Wikipedia
Higher energy density
provides longer
battery life in high

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.

1. Launch Triangle Solver


2. Press the right triangle
button to change to
right triangle
3. Select side a: box
4. Press 1, Enter, 2, Enter
5. Press Solve
6. Press Shift, Esc to clear
7. Repeat with 3 and 4 for
sides a and b
8. Explain this is a
Pythagorean triple
9. Can students find any
other triples?

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?
