You'll be inspired by this low-stress guide to a high-tech math learning tool!
Your TI-Nspire is unlike any mathematical tool you've ever seen, so you'll really appreciate this plain-English guide to what it can do and how to do it. From loading the batteries and creating a document to performing geometric calculations and constructing statistical graphs, you'll see how to use the TI-Nspire alone and with your PC.
* Start here - set up your TI-Nspire handheld, get familiar with the keypad, use the function keys, and configure system settings
* You need representation - grasp mathematical concepts more easily through multiple representations and linking representations
* Document problems - create documents, add problems, configure page layout, and save your work for assignments or class notes
* Be calculating - work with the calculator menu, tools, forms, and variables
* Graphic or plane - use the graphing functions in the analytic view and work with geometric objects in the plane geometry view
* List the spread - create and manage lists and spreadsheets and use this application with others for statistical calculations
* Link up - connect the TI-Nspire handheld to your computer
Open the book and find:
* How to connect your TI-Nspire handheld to your computer
* Basics of entering and evaluating expressions
* How to conduct data collection experiments
* How to use CAS (Computer Algebra System) in algebra and calculus
* Different methods of graphing a function
* How to construct geometric objects
* Steps for creating dot plots, histograms, box plots, and scatter plots
* What the Notes function provides and how to use it
