Uses phone keyboard alongside the Wolfram Alpha keyboard for users to type
in mathematic questions and/or expression
When user types in mathematic expression and/or question, the app provides
multiple representations of the answer, alternate forms of the question, and
even solution strategies and pathways
This could be an incredibly helpful tool for students to use, particularly
because this application not only provides a solution to a question, but the
student can look at how the answer was obtained and multiple different
representations for the answer (ie algebraic, geometric, number line, etc.)
Operations
Numbers
Algebra
X-y coordinate plane
Degrees vs radians
Greek letters
This application has an incredibly vast amount of mathematic content elements as
it provides more functions than a graphing calculator.

Assessment: The app has built in mechanism for tracking student performance.
Perception: I have an idea of how to integrate the app into teaching/learning practices.

a) Parent Functions
b) CAS Mathematic Standard: HS.2.1.c.i Graph functions expressed symbolically and show
key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more
complicated cases.
c) Students will be given manipulatives where they are given several different functions,
and they must match the corresponding parent function, parent function name, graph,
horizontal and vertical shifts, and other defining characteristics of the function. Students
should use Wolfram Alpha to help them and to check their matching for accuracy. This
would be a good classroom activity for students to use Wolfram Alpha because this
activity ensures that students cannot just write down an answer from the application, but
they have to interpret and make connections on their own.
