Confused About Calculators?

Tuesday August 28, 2007

Many students and parents get nervous about buying a graphing calculator because there are choices out there--and it's so important to make the right choice!

Texas Instruments© (TI) has provided reliable graphic calculators to students for years, and their products are often recommended by educators. If you’re in the market for a graphing calculator, you may want to read over the buyer’s guide, which explains which calculator to buy for specific high school courses.

If you’re looking for information about the value of calculators in the classroom, you may enjoy this great article from TI, which provides information about calculators as a true learning tool (as opposed to a crutch).
