If you're teaching Pre-Algebra and above and use the TI-83 and/or TI-84 family, you must absolutely buy this software! I teach math exclusively to special-needs students and this piece of software is an invaluable tool for me.

I have used the trial of this program in my classroom with my LCD projector.
There's a screen for viewing your keystroke history, and another that will enlarge the calculator screen.
The keys are easy to view, and change color when pressed.
After presenting with this at Open House all of the students are really looking forward to this being used in class in the future.

I wish this software wasn't more expensive than the actual calculator that it emulates, but it does what I need it to do. I am farsighted and the AWFUL low contrast screens of pretty much all current day calculators are almost impossible for me to read in classroom lighting, and they give me a migraine. This software, with cooperation from my professors, allows me to use my laptop to replace the calculator I would have to use for some of my classes.

TI's failure to offer a site license for this software product causes administrative hassles at my college. Get with it!
