2 4 Categories- MATH, NUM, CPX, and PRB

3 Overall Themes  Tool for executing previously learned material, NOT in place of learning  The menus button covers more than just Secondary mathematics curriculum  5 th grade- Fractions and Decimals  6 th grade- lcm and gcd  8 th grade- working with radicals and integer exponents  High School- Rectangular and Polar Forms, Conjugates (Geometry), Probability and Statistics  Advanced courses- Derivatives and Integration

4 Texas Instruments VS Casio TI 84 Plus Casio FX- 9860G11 -Monopoly in US Schools (Teacher demonstrations) -Less popular (No Modeling in classrooms) -More expensive ~$120 -More timely to graph functions -Cheaper ~$80 -Faster graphing abilities -Text Interface - Greater Learning Curve - No backlighting -Visual interface - Smaller learning curve - Backlighting

5 CASIO MAIN MENU

6 Class Discussion  Your experience with teachers modeling the TI calculators. Any with Casio?  Who remembers how to use your calculator beyond simple functions?  Would a visual interface help in classrooms?  Reasoning- First impressions of TI website?First impressions  Are you surprised? What’s your take?
