Two new Techtivities are part of the collection:  The Dynamic Tent What could a tent look like with different lengths for its height and base? In this activity, investigate and graph relationships between the height and base of a dynamic

In April 2018, ITSCoRe co-PI Gary Olson presented on Desmos TECHtivities for the College Algebra Classroom at the Rocky Mountain Section Meeting of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) TECHtivities provide opportunities for students to use graphs to represent relationships between attributes

Gary Olson, ITSCoRe project co-PI, will be discussing the ITSCoRe project scope and goals at the Joint Mathematics Meetings this week in San Diego, CA. Since the printing of our poster, we have had a few personnel changes and additions.

We have two new members of our ITSCoRe project team: Amber Gardner and Amy Smith Amber and Amy will participate as graduate research assistants. Together, they bring over two decades of experience in K-12 education. The work of ITSCoRe will

We have a set of 5 dynamic computer activities, “Techtivities,” developed in collaboration with Dan Meyer and the team at Desmos.   The Techtivities link animations with dynamic graphs, in innovative and exciting ways. Students working on the Techtivities can
