Graphing Calculator Resources

The TI Web Site:   http://www.ti.com/calc/docs/
If all you had time for were 5 visits, do the following:
1.
Download the TI-Graph Link™ software so you can transfer programs and data between your graphing calculator and a PC or Macintosh. Then purchase a TI-Graph Link Cable for Windows at the Accessory Store, or if you have a MAC, purchase the full package. (You can also buy the cable at TI Instructional Dealers or at Staples).
2.
Electronically upgrade the Flash memory of your TI-83 Plus as new functionality becomes available. (You will need the TI-Graph Link™ ) Or, purchase some add-on software at the Flash Accessory Store such as Interactive Graphing.
3. Browse the Calculator Program Archive for cool programs which you can download for free.
4. Check out the classroom graphing calculator activities for Middle School and High School.
