Math @ Williston App

EulerI just put the finishing touches on the first version of the Math @ Williston App for my classes. You can check out and install the app right here: MyApp.is/WillistonMathematics

You can load the app in any mobile device as well as in your browser. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Here’s what the app looks like:

Surface Pro Resources

As the math department spends more and more time working with the Surface Pros, everything we learn will be posted to this site. Our goal is to keep a master list of resources on the Surface Pro Resource page that just went online (link in the upper toolbar) with these three items:
