An open-ended option for designing tasks that use GM
Canvas is similar to a traditional white board, but with much more potentials and flexibility. GMA Canvas provides a platform where users can freely interact and explore our dynamic algebra notation system. Using the application, teachers can integrate open-ended problems into larger assignments.
For example, Canvas allows teachers to create a word problem and the students can use GM in ways of their choosing to solve it, including equations, graphs, and text.
