Math is not one dimensional. It is 3-dimensional. That is why my students really enjoy working on math programs on school issued laptops. My students also engage in technology and other apps on their tablets and phones outside of school. They engage with technology because they live in a technology-saturated world. To learn Math, they need to be just as engaged and interested in the concepts being taught via the use of technology in the classroom. A 65" Smart TV will allow the entire classroom to easily view engaging math apps, videos, and teaching programs in 3-Dimensions rather than looking at a boring one-dimensional white-board presentation. I have a plethora of apps and teaching programs available for running from my "IPad Pro" onto a TV screen via Wifi. The students thoroughly enjoy technology and the TV will allow math to be taught using a medium the students are familiar with, comfortable with, and easily engage with. I can already imagine how a 3-Dimensional presentation on a large screen TV in the classroom, complete with sound, will capture the attention of students while they learn math! Learning math will no longer be a chore nor a source of anxiety for them but rather a fun activity in a whole group presentation.
