Casio Celebrates Math 2.0 Day With ClassPad.net

DOVER, N.J., July 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- This Sunday Casio America, Inc., a leader, and pioneer in the education space, is celebrating Math 2.0 day; a day to celebrate the blending of technology and mathematics. Since their introduction of electronic calculators over 60 years ago, Casio has continued to pioneer innovative education technologies. Their newest introduction, ClassPad.net, is an all-in one web-based mathematics resource geared for K-12 mathematics and beyond.

ClassPad.net is a "digital scratch paper" that helps students investigate mathematics deeply and enhance their understanding of related concepts utilizing one program. As technology advances, the dominance of touchscreen devices both in and out of the classroom increases. ClassPad.net is designed to be equally usable by keyboard/mouse and touchscreen-based platforms. Students and teachers can go to ClassPad.net and draw geometry figures reehand and input calculations as they would on real scratch paper.

The software also takes advantage of Casio's Natural Display technology for input and output of mathematical expressions. All calculations are performed by Casio's ClassPad engine, a full Computer Algebra System (CAS), which has been improved and updated for over 15 years. ClassPad.net allows simultaneous work with calculation, graphing, geometry and data analysis/statistics.

ClassPad.net is available now for free in beta testing form, with version 1.0 slated to launch later this year. It is available via any modern web browser on various platforms, including Chromebook, iPad, PC, and Mac. Users must complete a one-time registration to gain access to all features.  To register for ClassPad.net or for more information, please visit https://classpad.net.
