Get the kids talking about concepts

Encourage students to explain their work, defend their thinking and lead the class with the built-in Live Presenter, which allows them to connect their calculators to the teacher software and project their screens.

Maximize learning time


Premium teacher software includes numeric and Computer Algebra System (CAS) versions for maximum flexibility when demonstrating concepts, relationships and calculator usage.

TI-Nspire™ CX Navigator™ System

Gain real-time insights into student thinking

The premium teacher package includes software that supports the TI-Nspire™ CX Navigator™ System, a wireless interactive solution that supports effective, real-time formative assessment, classroom management, and collaborative exploration and discovery.

While the TI-Nspire™ CX Navigator™ System is built into the premium teacher package, it requires additional hardware that is purchased separately.
