Course Description

All of you have used a scientific calculator and some even a graphing calculator. But, have you ever used a tool that lets you drag equations to graph windows or drag figures to math windows? In this course we will study a tool that allows you to do these things and more; the ClassPad Manager, sometimes called a virtual ClassPad or virtual touchscreen calculator. During this course, you will learn many great features of the ClassPad and gain the skills needed to use the ClassPad in all mathematics courses. You will also learn terminology common to all windows applications and how to write a program.
