Graphing calculators will open up the possibilities of bringing in more interactive and exploratory learning for my students. The calculators will be used by students at home to better access the mathematics we are doing online synchronously. For example, when covering statistics, students could collect and store their own data to compare dot plots and histograms, for geometry the calculators would allow students to create and transform shapes using the dragging tool, and students could develop a deeper understanding of quadratic functions as they develop a model to represent the flight of a basketball using a picture downloaded to the graphing calculator. With the new math core, there is greater emphasis on problem solving and conceptual understanding. Graphing calculators help students make sense of problems and deepen understanding when they have access to multiple representations: graphical, geometric, algebraic, and tabular. The capabilities on these graphing calculators allow students to easily transition between each of these representations. The calculators will also allow me to utilize lessons involving technology that otherwise would not be possible. In a school where not all students can afford graphing calculators, it is necessary that we provide all students with the same opportunities and access to mathematical tools.
