Many Demonstrations have explicit questions in the text, but the experienced teacher will find multiple opportunities to add their own questions. Encourage students to discuss what is meant by a certain value or the effect a certain value has on the shape of the graph. During each demonstration, teachers should involve the class by asking students to predict what happens if you change the value of a constant, or alter the equation.

The demonstrations were designed with the intention that they be used with an Interactive Whiteboard or with a digital projector. The Teacher Demonstrations are designed to be interactive and used in the classroom to dynamically introduce or illustrate important concepts in algebra. The topics include many that are found in a typical second year algebra course. This book should not be used to replace a textbook: it is a book of demonstrations and investigations that supplement a good textbook. The Teacher Demonstrations illustrate topics and turn the classroom into a dynamic learning centre while the Student Investigations heighten a student's understanding and increase their level of competency. Electronic PDF book with free Autograph files for personal use (School Licence available separately).

This electronic book (PDF) demonstrates ways that Autograph, dynamic graphing software, is effectively utilized as a tool for interactive teacher demonstrations and independent student investigations.
