My Project

Chemistry is a class where students get to apply their math skills to real life applications. Students love learning topics that relate to everyday occurrences, such as why solid water floats in liquid water using the concept of density. When connecting their math skills to chemistry, one hurdle that students often face is the lack access to a scientific calculator. One challenge teachers face is helping students know how to use their calculator for higher math skills such as multiplication with numbers in scientific notation or logarithms. This project will provide a classroom set of calculators so that all students have access to a scientific calculator. Because all students will have access to the same calculator, teachers won't spend extra time giving instructions for how to use the calculators. This will allow students more time for making sense of their calculations and less time struggling with calculator mechanics.
