Desmos may be primarily known as a free online graphing calculator, however, with the free Desmos Activity Builder teachers can do more than just graphing with their students. They can use premade or create their own interactive slideshows to help students learn math concepts in face to face classes or virtually. Even though this was developed to be used within the live classroom, with the ability to see student work in real time and communicate directly with students within the activities, this becomes a great tool to use virtually with students as well. In this session we will introduce you to some sample activities, give a tour of the teacher.desmos.com site and show features of the teacher dashboard. Come with a device prepared to try some activities out.
