It’s extremely intuitive to use sliders give you the ability to see how things change Desmos made it accessible for a diverse group of learners, and it’s totally FREE for all to use. The graphing calculator is an amazing tool. Making artistic representations using math is a nice way to see the beauty in math. Make the connection between math and art – Sometimes as math teachers we get caught up in our curriculum, and we don’t take time to observe the beauty in math.In the past I would give notes like “adding to y will cause a vertical translation, but now I create graphs in the Desmos graphing calculator like this, and have discussions with the visual to reinforce the idea. I start with the black polygon, then I ask students “what if I add 3 to the y?” Then I can use Desmos to quickly verify their thoughts. “What if?” machine – Desmos gives me the ability to quickly verify conjectures from my students. ![]() Desmos emphasizes this by allowing you to observe these all at once. An equation can also be seen as a table of values and as a graph. An important part of math is understanding that some things can be represented in several ways. Connect representations – I was admittedly very bad at this when I started teaching.The following are some creative ways I use the Desmos graphing calculator in my class: I set up a tablet in her normal seat, gave her the class code, and she got to participate in a class activity even though she was thousands of miles away. I once had a student on vacation ask if she could do a Google Hangout because she didn’t want to miss the Desmos activity we were doing in class. Not only do I love Desmos, but so do my students. I try to be honest with myself and make sure I am not being impressed simply by the technology itself, but rather by what the technology enables my students to do (see student art pics). ![]() As an educator, I try to be very deliberate in my choice of classroom tools, especially with technology. There are numerous reasons why I use all of the various Desmos tools in the classroom. ![]() Over the years, Desmos has grown to include a variety of tools, and, as the company has grown, so has my passion for using it. I found several online graphing calculators that I liked, but eventually chose to stick with the Desmos graphing calculator. I started using Desmos several years ago because I was sick of doing so much graphing by hand (Algebra 1 teacher problems!). I have been an educator for 19 years, all of which have been in middle school and predominantly Algebra 1. Teaching is definitely something of a craft to me, and my favorite tool is Desmos, a free tool for teachers. Every good craftsman has his or her favorite tool. ![]()

![]() ![]() Triangle Strategy launches on March 4, 2022, for Nintendo Switch. Players will likely want to play through at least twice, meaning a commitment of roughly 80-100 hours, and completionists are going to need to bump that playtime up even more. This gives the game a similar feel to something like Fire Emblem: Three Houses, requiring you to play through the game multiple times in order to see the full story and context for every event. Outside of Mental Mock Battles at your camp and optional cutscenes, Triangle Strategy doesn’t have much in the way of sidequests.īeating Triangle Strategy once unlocks a New Game+ option, so you’ll be able to play through again and see some of the alternate routes. Triangle Strategy is also quite challenging, so you may need to replay multiple battles before you can actually beat them. In two investigations, published on back-to-back days in April 2022 by BuzzFeed News and MIT Tech Review, journalists alleged that Worldcoin trials in developing countries were riddled with. It can vary depending on if you decide to watch optional cutscenes, play through the optional battles at camp, and how much you explore during the exploration sections. NintendoĪn average playthrough of Triangle Strategy is likely going to run roughly 40-50 hours. You’ll need multiple playthroughs if you want to see the full story in Triangle Strategy. How long does Triangle Strategy take to beat? While the chapters you play can vary, the general length of the game is going to be roughly the same each time.

Today, there are more SSP options on the market, but few of them are as up-to-date as the AV7702. A big reason for the aggressive pricing is that Marantz based their SSP off of an A/V receiver (AVR) platform. When Chris Heinonen reviewed the Marantz AV7701 in 2013, he noted that Marantz was one of the few companies offering an SSP at an aggressive price. Introduction to the Marantz AV7702 Surround Sound Processor Review Gain structure makes pairing with high-gain amps or high-efficiency speakers difficult.While Dolby Surround and Auro-3D are amazing for movies, they are a step back from Dolby Pro Logic IIx (not included) or Logic7 (Harman proprietary) for music.Stable and consistent implementation of Audyssey room correction.Intuitive setup routine dramatically reduces scope for user error.Immersive sound upmixers (Dolby Surround, Auro-3D) are addictive for movie/TV content.Immersive sound is a paradigm shift with massive potential to enhance enjoyment of both music and movies.Marantz AV7702 Surround Sound Processor Highlights Summary ![]() On the video side the AV7702 boasts ISF display calibration controls. On top of all that, the AV7702 provides a built-in HD radio tuner, and even a simple phono preamp. The AV7702 can stream music from AirPlay or Bluetooth sources, and offers a comprehensive array of streaming options over its wireless or wired network connection. It can decode practically every digital audio format ever created, including multichannel DSD. The Marantz AV7702 uses Audyssey’s flagship Platinum audio processing suite. The AV7702 also includes Audyssey DSX and dts Neo:X upmixers, but deletes Dolby Pro Logic II. ![]() Both upmixers synthesize an immersive 3D soundfield from a stereo or multichannel recording. In addition to Atmos and (optionally) Auro immersive sound, the AV7702 includes the new Dolby Surround and (optionally) Auro-3D upmixers. Marantz’s new AV7702 surround sound processor (SSP) maintains that tradition by being one of the first SSPs to support Dolby Atmos and (optionally) Auro immersive sound, which Secrets’ Chris Eberle recently discussed in depth in “Dolby Atmos and Auro 3D: The Technology and The Reality.” The Marantz AV7702 also features a very clear and intuitive setup routine, an excellent iOS Remote Control app, and distinctive styling. Marantz is in their seventh decade of providing high-performance audio equipment, and in that time they’ve often pushed the envelope, especially in surround sound.

HandBrake has developed into a sophisticated video transcoder, faster, more stable, or more feature-rich than previous builds. Without a clear sense of how settings alter video quality or output size, I had to rely upon time-intensive trial and error and the (admittedly voluminous) expertise of users on the HandBrake forums (Opens in a new window). Tough noogies if those four minutes are not representative. When it comes to evaluating the effects of tinkering, HandBrake does bundle a live preview through which you may preview your video based upon current settings however, you can only preview up to four minutes-the first four minutes-of your video. For example, I could read esoteric information about anamorphic, modulus, and cropping settings, but I could not find an estimated file size. While HandBrake makes it easy to access settings, less clear is what changes will do to your video file. Tinkering under the hood can blow up in your face. HandBrake enables users to optimize encodings for the Web, toggle between video codecs, adjust bitrates and framerates, and even import chapter numbers. Video-savvy users, however, may choose to fine-tune settings to maximize quality and minimize file size. MP4 files typically tally north of a gigabyte for a full-length movie. If you intend to rip a number of DVDs in Universal format, you will likely want to invest in an external hard drive. In my experience, video quality is excellent-near indistinguishable from its source-and storage sizes are roughly equivalent between formats. The HandBrake presets will likely satisfy most users. HandBrake will alert you to "Put down that cocktail" when your conversion is complete. The good news is threefold: you can do other things on your computer while Handbrake works Handbrake will notify you of both the time remaining and percent completed via its dock icon and, using the Queue, you can batch-convert multiple files.

Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. Although its interface, performance, and stability have markedly improved, HandBrake may not match the versatility or simplicity of newer alternatives however, for users seeking a free, open source, cross-platform video transcoder, HandBrake remains an enticing option. MP4s for my iPhone, HandBrake has evolved into a dexterous translator of devices and formats. Instead of ripping DVDs, I use HandBrake to update videos into the latest formats. While I rarely use my MacBook's disk drive today, I do rely on HandBrake. DVDs are bargain bin cheap, supplanted by copy-protected Blu-Ray disks and high-quality video streaming services such as Netflix ($7.99, 4 stars), and users access media from a bevy of iOS and Android devices.

The only extra fees that members have to pay on top of monthly fees is the initiation fee, which is only $1 under most plans.Īdditionally, one personal training session is included for free for all membership types. This guest pass is a great way to show any friends or family all of the best parts of your gym, while being able to work out together and attend the same sessions if desired. The guest pass, which is what any new members would use as their free trial to the gym, would allow your guest to go with you and experience the main parts of a Basic One Club membership.

To find your GIF, tap on Albums in the Photo app, then find the Animated album. There’s also a Bounce effect, which works like Instagram’s Boomerang.

Like all other photos and video shot on an iPhone, the Live Photos end up in the Photos app. It will turn white, then display a LIVE OFF label. You’re tapping the shutter button at the midpoint of the Live Photo, so that should help you time the best moment to take the image.Īs soon as you’ve taken your Live Photo, it’s a good idea to tap the Live Photo button pictured above to turn off the feature. This is especially true if you wish to use the Live Photo as wallpaper on your iPhone.When making the shot, don’t be fooled into believing that you’re shooting video - the Live Photo actually begins 1.5 seconds before you press the shutter button and ends 1.5 seconds after it is pressed. While most of the time professional photographers recommend taking photos in landscape (wide) mode, Live Photos are best captured in portrait (tall) mode.
