  • New graphing technology offers opportunities for explorations that were not possible until now. What can students learn from the graph of x^4 + 10x^2y^2 – 9y^4 = 0? How about abs(x + y) = x + y or ln(abs(+ 1) = ln(abs(x)) – 2? Examples spanning the school curriculum will be used to illustrate some new ways to leverage graphing technology in the classroom.
