            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.
