Visualizing the Concepts

My students need TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculators to help them explore and understand math in a whole new way. Visual representations of graphs will improve their understanding of related concepts.

My Students

My students are a great group of young adults who are eager to learn. They are most engaged when they feel that concepts are relevant to their own lives and feel that the content will be useful to them.. As high school students, they are beginning to explore possibilities for future careers and make decisions about what to do with their lives after they graduate. We have a wonderful school district, but unfortunately, funds are short and not all classes can have access to these calculators.

My Project

The TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculators will help students visualize concepts clearly and make faster, stronger connections between equations, data, and graphs in full color. This will provide them with a visual picture of the concepts that they are learning and will deepen their understanding of how math relates to the world around them. It will also help prepare them for their future math courses, college and future careers. Each student has their own learning style and having these tools will help serve the individual needs of each student. These calculators are also very versatile, serving student needs from basic math all the way to Calculus and Statistics.
