Hi Kirby, Love your article! Case in point, last summer I was tasked with taking over a Calc III section at the local college at the last second. I was given a huge multimedia lecture hall with balcony setting, media center and HDTVs all over the room to display my work from my monitor. I wanted to record my lessons live for YouTube so I used teamviewer to drive the whole room from the media center remotely on my chromebook. First thing I lost in this setup was a TI84 or nSpire emulator so I just had everyone bring in their own device (BYOD) be it laptop, tablet or smartphone and we used SAGE all summer session. It worked great. The students could all code with me during class and at home for homework as well as on tests. I'm never going back to the calculator of the past!

It's on my usual theme: giving high schoolers a more significant experience by ditching scientific calculators in favor of "the calculator of tomorrow". I.e. instead of a "graphing calculator" we use pandas.

The "of tomorrow" meme is retro futurism. Remember EPCOT? Now it's Epcot.
