are this software makes it easy for the students to understand how to
graph. At this time I found nothing wrong with the software.
How long did it take you to become familiar with the program? It took me

Emerging Technology/Printer

3D
3D Printer is a various
processes for making a
three-dimensional object
of almost any shape from
a 3D model or other
electronic data source
primarily through additive
processes in which
successive layers of
material are laid down
under computer control.
Being used in an
education setting by
recreating a more lifelike
and a greater amount of
detail for clearer
understanding of lesson.

Email Exchange
I feel this would be a
great way for students
who fail to see the real
world implications of
math or science may
develop new interest if
you can put them in touch
with a video game
designer, astronaut, or
engineer who uses those
skills every day. And for
adults who might want to
volunteer but feel pressed
for time, email can be a
great way to help out,
since they can respond on
their own schedule. (By:
