Access to Complex Problems

  • Graphing calculator technology allows students’ access to complex problems that once were prohibitive. This includes problems for which the computation was so extensive that a student would be unable to complete the problem within one class period. In addition, students can explore mathematical concepts and problems that formerly required knowledge of more advanced mathematics. This technology also allows students to approach problem solving from several directions promoting participation by all learners and enabling a deeper understanding of the mathematics involved.
