    2. Graphing Calculators in the Classroom Calculators are “essential tools for teaching, learning and doing mathematics” National Council of Teachers of Mathematics

    3. Graphing Calculators in the Classroom Calculator use gives me more teaching time since students are not busy doing computations by hand.

    4. Graphing Calculators in the Classroom Students typically find mathematics more useful, less tedious and their confidence is boosted. Dunham, 1995

    5. Graphing Calculators in the Classroom Students may attend to mathematics and problem solving longer. The frustration of tedious manual computation is removed.

    6. Graphing Calculators in the Classroom Graphing calculators allow students the opportunity to discover patterns and make conjectures based on their observations.

    7. Graphing Calculators in the Classroom The use of graphing calculators shifts the classroom from teacher-led to student centered. Farrell, 1990

    8. Graphing Calculators in the Classroom Students learn mathematics more deeply with the appropriate and responsible use of technology. Dunham and Dick, 1994

    9. Proposal Purchase: set of 30 TI-83 graphing calculators overhead TI-83 graphing calculator Graphing Technology Guide

    10. Proposal Attend professional development on the use and implementation of the TI-83 in the Algebra II classroom.

    11. Proposal Implement the use of graphing calculators in my Algebra II classes for problems, activities and projects.

    12. Funding Toshiba America Foundation provides private funds to promote mathematics, science and the mathematics of technology.
