The project also validated that students typically find the Desmos graphing calculator simpler and more inviting to use than traditional graphing calculators. It provided insight into different ways instructors want flexibility to adapt Desmos-powered learning activities to fit their classroom needs. The pilot project confirmed the importance of building strong learning design around the Desmos tool to guide students through the learning process. Lumen and Demos initially collaborated on a small-scale pilot to test how OHM users can benefit from embedding the graphing calculator within an online homework system. Learning design and flexibility are longtime strengths of Lumen OHM, an affordable online homework system that uses open educational resources (OER) to teach math. “We’re using this technology to design ready-to-go interactive graphing activities that enable students to practice and learn graphing concepts more quickly through both instructor-led and self-guided activities within OHM.” “Digital tools like the Desmos graphing calculator create powerful opportunities to enrich the learning experience for all students,” said Kim Thanos, CEO of Lumen Learning. By fall 2020, Lumen plans to introduce an in-assessment calculator tool powered by Desmos, providing students all the tools they need to work problems and interpret results within a homework assignment or quiz. ![]() Initially the partnership will produce a set of well-designed interactive learning activities instructors and students may use inside or outside class to easily explore graphing and related mathematical concepts. and San Francisco (November 13, 2019) – Today open education innovator Lumen Learning and digital learning tool creator Desmos announced they will partner to incorporate the Desmos graphing calculator into Lumen Learning’s online homework system, OHM. ANNOUNCEMENT Lumen Learning, Desmos partner to bring intuitive, accessible graphing to online homework system OHM Online graphing calculator will increase interactivity and ease-of-use for students using Lumen OHM to learn graphing and related mathematical concepts ![]()
