Integrate math and science: Use graphing calculators to collect and analyze data!!!!! Join us on WakeForest’s campus for a two-day workshop for high school science and math teachers. Led by staff from Science House at N.C.State, this workshop will help you get the most out of your students’ calculators AND show you how they can be used to collect science experiment data!

Where: WFU’s Salem Hall

When: June 8 & 9,9AM-2:45PM

Why: Integrate science and math, improve your teaching, new activities, $150 stipend, 1.0 technology renewal credits.

June 8: Introduction to the TI-83 (+) Graphing Calculator
This workshop is for teachers who would like to learn the capabilities of the TI-83 or TI-83 Plus graphing calculator and how it can be used (without the CBL) in the math and science classroom. Activities will include analyzing graphs, data collection and manipulation, and basic statistics.

June 9: Using Calculator-Based Laboratory (CBL) Equipment
to Teach Math and Science

Graphing calculators and calculator-based laboratory equipment are great tools for teaching integrated math and science. They promote inquiry learning and are relatively inexpensive. This introductory workshop covers the basics of using this equipment. Participants learn to use CBL to explore a variety of science topics. Labs and activities are designed for students of all abilities and complement the NRC’s National Science Standards. This workshop can be taught with CBLs, CBL2s, or Vernier LabPros.


This workshop has limited attendance and will fill on a rolling basis! Please fax this form ASAP to Angela King (fax 758-4656) to reserve your space. Teachers who register for both dayswill be given top priority.
