I am a retired math instructor and educational technology consultant who loves teaching and learning with technology.
I am married and have 2 adult children who share my passion for life! I am writing this blog to share my ideas on teaching math in ways that will enhance student learning and participation in any classroom, and beyond!

Sue, I would like to recommend you to the Executive Steering Committee for ICTCM 2011 as a speaker in the emerging technologies strand. If you are interested, please send me your contact information I will forward it to them. I’m not a spammer – I was last year’s co-chair. http://ictcm.org
Thank you very much for considering me! I sent an email to your gmail account with my contact information.
Love your blog! Not seeing how to easily subscribe. Do you have an RSS feed button I’m missing?
I added a subscribe button on the right side menu (it was easier than I thought!) Thanks for wanting to subscribe! Sue
Hi Sue,
Did you get an answer for the question you posted
“I SERIOUSLY need the handwriting tool in Office 2011 – why did they take it out? I cannot find the Feedback section in the Help 🙁 The ONLY reason I updated to Office 2011 was to use my Wacom tablet to handwrite onto a document in Office. The windows version does it and I use it all the time, but I also have a Mac and I need the same functionality.”
I am having the same issue and hope that you have found a solution you can share with me.

I did, but you aren’t going to like it. They did take the feature out, but they did not say why. I have had to switch over to using my Windows machine now with Office 2010, which DOES have the handwriting tool.
sorry!
Hi Sue,
My name is Lydia and I work for Texas Instruments in our Product Development Team. From a teaching experience, do you use TI-83, TI-84 or TI-Nspire handhelds? If so, I was wondering if we could set up a conference call some time?
Thanks, Lydia Neher

Sue, great blog! I have a son who is quite dysgraphic. His mental math is very quick but he is suffering in most math classes because writing requires SO much effort that he has little patience for the procedural stuff. I am trying to set him up with a voice recognition package and equation writing tool that will support his math learning. Have you conducted your tests of Math Type yet? Any recommendations? Thanks. John
Glad you found this helpful!
I have not found a great way to translate verbal math to typed math yet. I will post when/if I find one!!
