Math Whiteboard is a free collaborative whiteboard. Graphing will never be the same! You can even embed videos on the page- and I love that everything (the math, drawing, text, and the graph) is all on one screen. There are even sliders where you can change the values and watch the graph change.
While you cannot assign them to students, like slides, you can have multiple pages and have each student work on their own page (and the teacher can see all the work). There is no turn-in function.
I watched the recording from Eric Curts recently. While the demo is done with a touch screen, you can also type (see the onscreen keyboard at about 41 mins).
Here were my highlights:
creates graphs and then provides a slider to change the values. (8 mins)
creates animations (related rates problem at 11 mins.)
equivalent features would help students in solving problems (things that are equivalent appear in the same color- from fractions to steps in solving an equation. I think this could be a great homework tool). (25 min)
I’m sure those with math talents will see many more applications. Special thanks to Lauren Buonpane and Mary Kruh for test driving this site and sharing their feedback.
