Tequipment: Blogging About SMART Boards, Resources, Lessons, Training, Games

Imagine this… You just got home and you sit down to tackle your homework. The first question stumps you… your parents are not home or, parents, you have a hard time helping your child.

Have no fear WolframAlpha is here! This website is dedicated to making knowledge more accessible. On October 21^st the website hosted an interactive web event called Homework Day. Students, of all ages, were able to table their toughest questions and get the answers and help they need. The event was only one day, but the site is here to stay.  All of the submitted questions and a photo gallery of the event are archived on their website.

To get your questions answered on WolframAlpha, simply add your formula or question into the search box and press return. Watch and wait while the site deconstructs your question to generate your answer.  Mathematics, Health, and Finance are just  some topics that the website can assist with.

So the next time you get stumped, visit WolframAlpha.
