All-in-one math teaching and learning tool for iPad helps students to understand and interact with complex math with little awareness of the tool.
Texas Instruments (TI), the most trusted brand in graphing calculator technology, “took a major step forward in our mission to improve student understanding and achievement in mathematics” with the release of two new innovative apps: TI-Nspire App for iPad and TI-Nspire CAS App for iPad, said Melendy Lovett, president of Texas Instruments Education Technology.
The TI-Nspire Apps for iPad were designed and refined in collaboration with researchers and classroom teachers, including Stephanie Ogden, Dean of Research and Development at L&N STEM Academy in Knoxville, TN, who also teaches Pre-Calculus, AP* Calculus, AP* Statistics and STEM.
The TI-Nspire CAS App for iPad has a powerful built-in Computer Algebra System (CAS) which enables students to symbolically solve equations, factor and expand variable expressions, complete the square, find derivatives, compute limits, find exact solutions in irrational form and much more.
TI-Nspire Apps for iPad will be featured in two full days of workshops and break-out sessions at the 2013 T3 International Conference held March 8-10 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The TI-Nspire App for iPad and TI-Nspire CAS App for iPad are available for $29.99 each from the App Store on iPad or at www.AppStore.com. Teachers are eligible to receive a free, one-year license of the TI-Nspire and TI-Nspire CAS Teacher Software with purchase of one of the TI-Nspire Apps for iPad. Detailed information about the TI-Nspire Apps for iPad, including a brief video overview, is available at education.ti.com/ipad.
