• The TI-84 Plus CE Chromebook App extends the use of TI’s trusted, familiar handheld calculator to help teachers teach and students learn and understand math.

• The app emulates the TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculator on a Chromebook and is designed to assist students learning remotely.

• The app is available for download through July 15, 2021 to support schools in need at no charge.
  

On the distance learning web page (http://education.ti.com/distancelearning ), there is a form for teachers (or students who own their own Chromebook) to request the Chrome app for their schools or device. Once submitted, the form will be sent to the Ohio Education Technology Consultant, Michelle Grooms (mgrooms@ti.com) who can help facilitate the request.
