Fraction as Slope vs Singularity by Vaonis

Fraction as Slope helps students explore fractions and slope visually. The app shows how fractions can be understood as slopes of lines. Students can draw and move graphs of lines to explore, compare, add, subtract, reduce, and expand positive and negative fractions. This gives algebra students a visual way to build conceptual understanding of both fractions and slopes. Students can see equivalent fractions as lines with the same slope, compare fractions by comparing their slopes, and explore how changing a numerator or denominator changes the graph. Teachers With Apps: “Fraction as Slope by Esa Helttula of iDevBooks is simply elegant. It is written for big kids with a design that respects and lends gravity to what they are learning. The app is simply composed of an adjustable grid where numbers are plotted along an axis so that you can visually see a slope of that fraction with all its equivalents.” GeekDad: “Fraction as Slope allows your kids to play around with graphed lines and see the connection between fractions and slopes. It’s a straightforward, targeted learning app, and kids will enjoy manipulating the graphs manually.” Features: - Explore fractions as slopes of lines - Compare fractions visually using slopes - Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators - Reduce and expand fractions visually - Explore equivalent fractions - Work with positive and negative fractions - Adjustable grid for open exploration Other iDevBooks Math Apps: Other iDevBooks math apps include Visual Multiplication Table, Visual Fractions Decimals Percentages, Decimal Rounding, Whole Number Rounding, Column Subtraction, Column Addition, Long Division, Long Multiplication, Lattice Multiplication, Fraction Math, Partial Differences Subtraction, Partial Quotients Division, Partial Sums Addition, and more.

Singularity by Vaonis is the control center for your Stellina and Vespera observation stations. This intuitive mobile application allows you to explore the Cosmos with ease. Receive personalized recommendations on which objects to observe according to your geolocation and the astronomical calendar. Learn more about the history of the Universe and immortalize your trip by photographing galaxies, nebulae and star clusters. AUTOMATIC SETUP Just press the button, and let Stellina and Vespera do the rest. Your new companion will use your GPS to find its position on Earth, adjust its focus and be ready to take you anywhere you want in less than 5 minutes. AUTOMATIC ALIGNEMENT AND TRACKING Choose your destination in the Singularity object catalog or enter the celestial coordinates of the object. Your station will automatically point to the selected area, and track it to maintain optimal viewing conditions. IMAGE PROCESSING It only takes a few seconds for Stellina and Vespera to deliver the first image of your destination before compiling dozens, hundreds or even thousands of other images in real time, progressively revealing ever greater details and colors. SPACE CENTER Take control of your station from the Space Center: prepare your observation evening by checking the weather forecast, create and manage your observation locations, check the parameters of Stellina/Vespera... You can also read the astronomical news or our advice on Stellina and Vespera on our blog while waiting for nightfall. MOSAIC MODE CovalENS is the first automated “panorama mode” ever embedded into a telescope. This unique patented technology, developed by Vaonis, allows you to take several photos of a same stellar region and then automatically stitch them together, thus offering users a larger view (field) of the universe. SOLAR MODE Observe easily and safely the closest star to Earth during the day with the Vaonis solar filters. The Solar Mode allows you to observe and capture sunspots that show the intensity of the Sun’s activity. EXPERT MODE Access an unlimited number of objects with coordinate pointing. Customize your camera's exposure time and gain to generate initial files for manual processing using image editing software. PLAN MY NIGHT Program your observation station for the night and let it explore the Universe on its own. After a good night's sleep, recover your photos on a USB key (Stellina) or via Wi-FI FTP protocol (Vespera). SHARE YOUR JOURNEY ON SOCIAL NETWORKS Your trip is over, share it! Show the world your photos on social networks and join our community of explorers, using the hashtags #myStellina or #myVespera.
