TOYOTA HELPS WINFIELD HIGH SCHOOL

Winfield High School mathematics teachers are creating 21st Century                         classrooms, thanks to                                   a $6,820 grant they                               received from Toyota                                Motor Manufacturing,                               West Virginia.                                      Winfield students will                           benefit from the TI-                                Navigator, three TI-                              Smartview Software packages, and 24 TI-Nspire calculators purchased with the grant funding.

The TI-Navigator, a portable system that works with graphing calculators, provides wireless communication between the students’ calculators and the teacher’s computer. Using the Navigator, teachers are able to encourage student collaboration, monitor student work, and gauge comprehension.

With the TI-Nspire calculators, formulas, tables, and visual representations may be viewed individually or they may be linked dynamically; thus, teachers can differentiate instruction for student needs. In addition, the calculators come with an interchangeable TI-84 keyboard that allows students to use them as graphing calculators, as well.

AP teacher Audrey Boley, author of the grant, is quick to give credit to other teachers in the Winfield math department who contributed information that led to the approval of the grant. She also expressed her gratitude to Toyota Motor Manufacturing for their continued support of education.
