TI-nspire and Geogebra both have powerful 3-D graphing technology. I do have to say, though, Geogebra is easier to utilize–mostly due to the fact that the mouse cursor on the TI-nspire is its own definition of sadness; it kind of feels like trying to drive a stick in the middle of a winter storm. TheContinue reading “3-D and Graphing Technologies Blog Post”

CAS Technologies Blog Post
Quite frankly, I am very familiar with 3-D graphing features of Geogebra. No offense to Geogebra lovers out there (if there is any, of course), but Geogebra is like Walmart; it’s there, it’s cool, and I appreciate its existence, however, it just does not excite me. TI-NSpire CAS CX, on the other hand, is likeContinue reading “CAS Technologies Blog Post”
Functions and Equations with GSP Blog Post
Despite the possibly very bashful rating on GSP on my last blog post, I have grown to appreciate what the software has to offer. Out of Desmos, Geogebra, and GSP, I must admit that GSP has the most functionality of the three, after all. Like mentioned in the previous “bashful” post, there are a lotContinue reading “Functions and Equations with GSP Blog Post”
Geometry Technologies Blog Post
After experiencing three geometry technologies: Desmos, Geogebra, and Geometry Sketchpad, I can confidently say that all three were very much new to me. Nevertheless, they were relatively among the three, I would choose Geometry Sketchpad to be the hardest one. You may ask why Geometry Sketchpad? While it is true that Geogebra was a bitContinue reading “Geometry Technologies Blog Post”
Other TI-84 Features
First of all, before I record anything on this blog, I must declare that MA 3340 is like the year 2020; there is something new that surprises you to the bones each week—but in the best way possible. In the last two weeks, I have come to a conclusion that my TI-84 calculator is likeContinue reading “Other TI-84 Features”
Lists and Stats Technologies
The second half of the first unit tackled tools in regards to statistics using TI calculators and Desmos. Initially, I was absolutely in awe from all the features that I have never known about, because I have been using both TI and Desmos for at least a half decade. Especially, knowing that you are ableContinue reading “Lists and Stats Technologies”
Intro Blog Post
To reflect the beginning of my experience in Mathematics Through Technology, I record that I was pleasantly surprised at the considerably small classroom size. Flabbergasted, I recall myself expressing my surprised with a phrase, “oh wow, finally a classroom with no boys! I have a straight-men allergy”. The classroom content wise, I would be lyingContinue reading “Intro Blog Post”
