The fact that Desmos is listed as a "study tool" doesn't do it justice. Desmos is the "conjecture-testing, judgement-free, learning-math-by-playing" tool.

Very interesting article Dan. I loved playing sports because it was fun to be with friends and have a common goal. I think that this could also be applied to math by having students work in groups as they explore math concepts. When I was a student in high school, I mostly did math by myself. In college, I've had classes where I work in my classmates and it's been fun to see how people approach problems in different ways.
