Information

All students need to purchase a TI-83 or TI-84 graphical calculator. They can be purchased from Amazon. Any version of either of these models is suitable (Plus, Plus C, Silver Edition etc.).

It will also be beneficial to have the following applications installed on a computer at home:

Word or similar (e.g. OpenOffice - free)
Excel or similar (e.g. OpenOffice - free)
Geogebra - free (installation is recommended but a browser based version is available)
SketchUp - free
Scratch - free (a browser based version is available)
