Technology Tools for Your Math Class

Hello everyone,
I want to talk about two technology tools to enrich math classes for this week. These are just great ways to incorporate technology in your math classroom so, feel comfortable to give them a try!




The first one is Desmos! - https://www.desmos.com/
Graph functions, plot data, evaluate equations, explore transformations, and much more – for free! 
Desmos has created an activity builder which teachers can use to build interactive lessons that students can do on their own tablet or Chromebook devices while the teacher monitors student work in real-time. What’s more, they have curated the best lessons into a comprehensive library of lessons that are free for teachers to use as well!
To give more ideas, I am giving examples of great jobs with Desmos.





Mathchamp is a very innovative iOS app that turns a student's iPad into a "buzzer" to answer questions before their classmate.  This requires a teacher to "host" the game as well as set up a class list. The application supplies all the Common Core Standard questions
from a wide variety of math problems. In the full version of the Math Champ Challenge, players are able to practice and build skills in a non-game version of Math Champ. Players can select specific subject areas (aligned with each Common Core Domain) and work through questions at their own pace. The skill builder allows players to answer both open-ended and multiple-choice (self-marking) questions while also gathering XP points. The skill builder provides a PLE (Personal Learning Environment) to help players build confidence as they strengthen their understandings of mathematical subjects. The adaptive engine will move advanced children towards mastery, while those who might be struggling with particular areas will be served less challenging questions.
