CALCULATOR POLICIES
Scientific and/or graphing calculators are permitted on homework and SOME exams. Due to the capabilities of the graphing calculators and programs available, students may not be permitted to use the graphing calculator on some exams because I am testing the students’ ability to solve the problems and not use the calculator. I will inform students in advance of which calculator they will be able to use. It is the STUDENTS' RESPONSIBILITY to secure the appropriate calculator for an exam. Students are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED but not required to have a TI-83+ or TI-84 graphing calculator. Students may check out a TI-82 GC from the library while supplies last. Students will need a scientific calculator. The easiest and most appropriate scientific calculator is the TI-30X IIS. Students will NOT be allowed to use the TI-34 Multiveiw calculators and calculators with comparable capabilities on exams.
