Include everyone in your math classroom

Equatio is an advanced equation editor used by millions of K-12 teachers and students. It makes math digital and accessible. Students can speak, draw, or type problems and equations directly onto their devices.  Teachers can use Equatio to save time when it comes to creating accessible math lessons and assessments.

Use Equatio to

Make math accessible

Writing math notation on a computer can be difficult for students in special education who have cognitive, motor, or dexterity issues. With Equatio, the alt text is generated behind every piece of math. Formula prediction supports students with learning difficulties and those who find it difficult to remember or understand symbols or functions. Equatio’s graph editor is compliant with WCAG 2.0 accessibility standards, supporting low vision and blind students.

Remove barriers to inclusive math

Remove barriers to learning and give students who struggle the tools they need to engage in grade-level learning alongside their peers.  Mitigate learning loss by helping students who are behind in math to catch up and get back to where they should be.  With Equatio, math becomes more than just numbers, and students can participate by reading, writing, listening, and speaking math.

Create independent learners

Students with dyscalculia, dyslexia, dysgraphia, and students who might struggle with math anxiety can engage with math and science content in ways that suits them best, whether it’s using math-to-speech, speech input, or handwriting. Equatio’s speech input also helps students with low motor functions work without a scribe and read math aloud.

Visualize math problems

Equatio mathspace allows visual learners to combine equations with geometric shapes, manipulatives, and dynamic graphs to understand concepts. Equatio provides many different ways for students to think and learn mathematically. Instead of emphasizing “the one right way” to think and do math, Equatio opens up possibilities for diverse learners.
