KDS Professional Development for TI-Nspire™ Calculator

This course will provide participants with an understanding of using the TI-Nspire handheld and computer software in the classroom. The power and potential of TI-Nspire's key mathematical and pedagogical features enable students to understand and learn Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, and Pre-Calculus in a more tangible environment through viewing their equations and implementing their work. Participants will explore the pedagogical implications of the document model as a tool for presentation, curriculum delivery, problem solving and recording students' thought processes. They will be expected to discuss the implications of having students create and use their own documents, along with the value of exploring and investigating pre-made documents. This course will explore assessment opportunities teachers can use in the classroom for their students provided by the new tools built into TI-Nspire to encourage the building of a community of educators.
