Team of math and science teachers recommend TI-82 advanced Python or edition or Numworks calculator purchase.
The secondary school strongly advise to choose a laptop in school for educational purposes with the following specifications:
- Windows 11 or Mac OS X. Android and Chromebooks do not support all the software in use in school.
- Integrated WiFi-AC or higher (WiFi-6…)
- Processor: Processor quad Cores or more.
- Memory: We advise at least 8GB Ram, and at least a hard drive with a capacity of 250GB, SSD-Harddrive is recommended.
- Screen size: at least 10.8 inch for comfortable viewing of texts, excel sheets etc. Tablets with small screens are strongly discouraged
- Touch screen and pen are strongly recommended.
- A good integrated or external keyboard in your language
- Lightweight for ease of transport
- A long battery life and/or spare battery (4 cells minimum, 6 cells or more is better)
- Minimum 1 USB-A port, or integrated USB-C port with adaptor for USB-C to USB-A
- Virus protection, a pdf reader (Windows 11 has a virus protection included but another installed is recommend. For the battery life, Norton is not recommended)
- A protective carrying case.
