Walk into any of my Algebra 2 or Pre-Calculus classes at any time and you will see students of all ability levels trying hard to master a topic. We take weekly notes and have daily practice that helps students learn and manipulate the many processes that math entails. While our students currently use district provided laptops in an effort to integrate technology into out classes to prepare students for the digital age we live in, in a math class, most times it is the actual process of handwriting and interacting with a problem pencil to paper that helps students remember steps for solving equations. The act of writing helps commit things to memory. Typing notes or doing online practice, while integrating and using our laptops, for most of my students does not help them commit problem solving skills or steps to memory. The repetition involved with learning math is lost when one is just typing into a document. With the digital tablets, my goal is to allow students to interact with the math and actually take handwritten notes in a digital format, that way they can save notes to utilize later. Using the digital tablets along with their laptops, they can draw diagrams or doodles to help them study and make their notes unique and personalized, physically write out math problems and examples by hand, and submit electronic work that has the look and feel of handwritten work, without the excessive use of paper. The use of digital writing tablets will help our students close the math and the digital gap.
