Abstract

Davison Church of England High School for Girls is a state secondary school and I have been using the TI-Nspire handhelds with this class periodically since July 2007. In May 2009 I began to use TI-Nspire Navigator and in this I used the Screen Capture features.
The use of the Screen Capture view did allow the students to begin to make the obvious connections between the different types of transformations and the effect of these on the graphs. Most of the students were able to connect the vertical translation of functions by adding a constant to their existing knowledge of changing the value of c in linear functions of the form y=mx +c.
