2. What is Wolfram Alpha? Wolfram Alpha is a website (now an app as well and now available on Android and Apple markets) that gives answers to problems and shows the work it takes to get to the solutions. A person inputs basically any problem and it gives solutions as it contains many formulas and over 15 million lines of mathematical coding, making it a great companion in learning. It’s also extremely easy to comprehend.

3. How to Use Wolfram Alpha Wolfram Alpha can be used in a variety of ways. It supports many formulas and even includes scientific and medical formats for quick access. It’s extremely hard to explain the limits for Wolfram because it is so vast in the ways it can be used. It gives a lot of other interesting information as well, you could input something like “How old is Barack Obama?” and it immediately comes up with the correct answer. It even displays things like star charts, it’s that great of an invention! It’s quick and reliable, it shows the work involved in problems, and it’s just a great program.

4. Why is this Truly Beneficial to Education? The better question is, how couldn’t this be truly beneficial to education? This database gives answers to basically everything you could want. It’s fast and reliable and can be used in pretty much every subject in school. It’s free on the internet and well worth the $2.99 price tag on the Android/Apple app stores.

5. In Conclusion Most of us are familiar with the fact that CMS is allowing technology such as smartphones and e-readers to be used in school next year. Wolfram Alpha would be one of the best things out there for you to get, and one of the things I would recommend most to teachers and students alike.
