The ClassPad 300 is the natural evolution of the graphing calculator. It comes packed with an impressive collection of applications that support self-study, like 3D Graph, Geometry, eActivity, SpeadSheet and lots more. A big 160 x 240-dot LCD touch screen enables easy and intuitive stylus-based operation.
The ClassPad 300 lets you input expressions and displays expressions as they appear in a textbook. Factorization of expressions, calculation of limit values of functions, and other operations can be performed quickly and easily while viewing the results on a large LCD screen. The ClassPad 300 comes with versatile graphing tools for 3D graphing and drawing of geometric figures, which provides plenty of support for the math studies of students.
The user interface of the ClassPad 300 uses an intuitive pull-down menu format that simplifies even complex operations. Solutions, expressions, and other items can be selected with the tap of the stylus. The ClassPad 300 also supports drag and drop, copy and paste, and other pen-based operations that help to minimize superfluous key operations.
A Presentation application provides the teacher with tools for creating materials to promote student understanding of mathematical concepts and problem solving processes. A simple operation captures ClassPad 300 screen shots, which can be combined into a presentation and played back in slideshow format. Students can advance at their own pace and even scroll back to previous pages as required.
An eActivity application allows the creation of eActivities that can include figures, expressions, and explanations.
The ClassPad encourages students to learn at their own pace and according to their own methods. It is a cross-curricular, cross-grade-level educational tool that promotes exploration, manipulation, and sharing of solutions. The ClassPad allows for reflection on and understanding of the problems, and helps students to discover their own abilities.
