WOLFRAM|ALPHAFacing the Future Fred Feldon, Coastline CCDenver, March 19, 2011

http://wolframalpha.com “computational knowledge engine” Introduced by Wolfram Research in May, 2009

Is it controversial? Yes! WA shows the answer--and explains every step in English--to any math problem from any course at any level that we teach at the community college!

Will it change the way we teach? Yes! Teach for concepts, application and deep understanding!

Will it change the way we test? Yes! When it becomes pervasive exams can be open-book, open-Internet just like the real world!

How are you feeling about the latest in math, technology and education?

“Mathematics is not a careful march down a well-cleared highway, but a journey into a strange wilderness, where the explorers often get lost.” -- W. S. Anglin, author of Mathematics: A Concise History and Philosophy, 1994

The problem isn’t that computers “dumb down” math; we have “dumbed down” problems! – Conrad Wolfram http://blog.ted.com/2010/11/15/teaching-kids-real-math-with-computers-conrad-wolfram-on-ted-com

“Math educators are spending 80% of their time teaching how to do calculations by hand. But math has been liberated from calculation. Instead we should be teaching how to ask the right questions, how to model the real world and how to verify our formulations.”

275 WolframAlpha IntermediateAlgebraActivities with Answers at http://scr.bi/bvrEV9

Where can you learn how to use WA? How do you keep up-to-date with the latest features?

SHOW ME THE MATH! From the basics to everything we teach in the two-year curriculum and beyond

Note how WA automatically finds a nice viewing window for you!

Paige is a 14-year old freshman in high school. She’s known for loving clothes, shopping and boys but NOT school!
Jason is her 10-year old genius little brother from hell.
She’s talking to Roger, her 16-year old big brother.
Good questions to ask: Why can’t x /=0? Why can’t xz/=0? (Then y would=0…)
