Welcome to the Wonderful World of Maths.
Videos on learning and using Desmos.
Students need to use a graphing program for various purposes - especially to develop an understanding of how functions and other mathematical relationships change.
Through enhancing that understanding, mathematics becomes more meaningful - and thereore easier .
