Autograph is dynamic software was developed with education in mind. It has two modes, basic and advanced making it suitable for working with younger and advanced students. It can be used to teach functions and calculus, coordinate geometry in two and three dimensions, and statistics and probabililty. Data can be transfered from Excel to produce much better graphs and enables features such as lines of best fit and equations to be found.

By selecing 1D statistical & probability graphs may be obtained, 2D allows for graphing, coordinates, transformations and bivariate data while 3D enables graphing, coordinates and transformations.

Pre-prepared files are available from the website. Some of my files have also been uploaded and can accessed via these links.

Autograph was used in conjunction with the ATM book Thinkers by John Mason et.al and discussed on Teacher's TV. In this clip you can see me working with a group of Y10 students on the theme of functions. The lesson notes area available:
