Discussion ideas

	◦	How have you used math software in the classroom?
	◦	What is your goal in using math software in class?
	◦	How much should students interact with the software? (Labs? In-class demonstrations? Homework? Tests?)
	◦	How do you grade technology assignments?
	◦	How do you adjust your teaching style when students are expected to use math software?

Discussion rough notes

Demonstrate things only in the class
	Such as projection
Modules to work through at their own pace
Could have almost every class entirely on the computer
Actually *doing* computations in a worksheet, plotting, etc.
	Guided tour through the concepts
	But this takes time
Showing how things change with different input is useful
Different user interface important for different students
Step folks through using the software while doing the math
	Make it experiential
Group writing assignments are a good idea sometimes
	Could be as much as a third of course grade
	Grade on explanation, other usual grading
	Rotating groups is a good idea, slackers will get pointed out - or assigned together
	Drafts are expected, even peer review
