Next Steps With TI-Nspire™ Technology in High School Mathematics

Educators with intermediate-level knowledge of TI-Nspire™ technology will learn how to create activities to excite and engage students in high school mathematics. This workshop covers a variety of topics, including Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Precalculus, Calculus and Statistics.

Learn how TI-Nspire™ technology facilitates reasoning, sense-making and understanding in an interactive mathematics classroom. You’ll have time to create your own activities and explore ways to enhance classroom activities with formative assessment.

Overview

This workshop is available in one-, two- and three-day options to accommodate educator-specific needs. The two- and three-day workshops offer a more extensive exploration of topics.
