This is the future of Texas Instruments handheld calculators:
What is the TI-Nspire CAS+ handheld?
The new TI-Nspire CAS+ math and science learning handheld, designed for pre-algebra through calculus and biology thru physics, allows students to see and edit multiple representations of a concept – all on one screen. This enables students to more effectively and easily explore relationships and make connections.With TI-Nspire technology your students can electronically create, save and reflect on every step of their work. This gives them the ability to review, demonstrate and communicate their problem solving – and you to assess their progress, even toward meeting curriculum standards.
Carrying forward the core capabilities, including the Computer Algebra System (CAS) of TI-89 Titanium graphing calculators, the research-based TI-Nspire CAS+ also adds:
- Interactive geometry software that integrates with algebra explorations
- The ability to grab and manipulate graphs & geometric shapes to see real-time changes
- Drop-down menus for easy, intuitive operation
- Software version for computer lab use or for classroom demonstration
What is the TI-Nspire™ CAS software?
TI-Nspire CAS computer software is computer software that incorporates the exact same capabilities of the TI-Nspire CAS+ handheld on a computer. The computer software provides opportunities for students to access TI-Nspire technology in a computer lab environment. As a tool for teachers, TI-Nspire CAS computer software acts as an emulator for effective classroom demonstration.Where and when will the TI-Nspire CAS+ be available?
The TI-Nspire CAS+ handheld and TI-Nspire CAS Software will be available in 2007 through select Canadian dealers. Please call 1-800-TI-CARES for updates on purchase information.
