This workshop aims to share with
the participants how to create an
e-Activity
on the graphing calculator Casio fx-9860G/SD/Slim. All
the
mathematical functions available in the fx-9860 G/SD/Slim
graphing
calculator can be integrated easily into the e-Activities,
hence make
the e-Activity a versatile and useful tool for learning.
In particular, graphing calculators
are generally accepted in
secondary
school and junior college mathematics classrooms and with
the
built−in e-Activity, they also provide a cheaper and portable
alternatives
to computers. Participants will have hands-on
experiences
in creating an e-Activity during the workshop and no
prior
knowledge of the graphing calculator is required. More
explorations
on the use of e-Activities for teaching and learning
will also
be demonstrated.
