Sparkling New Features include:

New Angle ObjectAngle measurement, including reex

and obtuse and right-angle marking.

Dotted lines styleNow available for all line objects.

Hide/unhideNow available for all objects.

Dynamic text boxesThe text box now responds to the

selected object by optionally

displaying its information dynamically,

including values and constants. Text

box styles can be set to default foreasy replication.

Calculated pointsSingle calculated points (eg max/min,mid point, etc) now act as individual

points.

Add imageYou can easily add an image as an

object from any standard graphics

In and out of Autograph

The Autograph website provides

tutorials, a world-wide forum, and links tomathematics resources and data.

Autograph itself connects

seamlessly to Excel and to Word by

simple copy and paste commands,

allowing data to be analysed and

presented to a high standard in Worddocuments.

Visualising Probability & Statistics

Fitting a Normal Distribution to data

Binomial and Poisson distributions

Illustrating residuals on a scatter plot

Seasonal data and the moving average

2 Dice simulation, one of six ExtrasComparing heights using Box Plots

The study of this branch of mathematics is essentially visual, and Autograph offers a huge range of

possibilities for making the subject come to life. Data is easily pasted in, or sampled, and the diagrams

that are created can all be controlled dynamically.

Difcult concepts such as Frequency Densityare handled thoroughly, and there is a clear distinctionbetween the representation of Continuousand Discretedata.

Visualising Advanced Mathematics

Autograph can bring inspiration and fascination to pupils who are pushing their understanding

to new levels. When Mathematics is brought to life using Autograph, the possibilties are endless,

including: Vectors, transformations by matrices, polar and parametric curves, trigonometry, the mystery

of calculus - all in 2D and spectacular 3D.

Generating a Cycloid parametrically

Differential Equations entered implicitly A family of polar conics

Using a zoom to explore integration

Illustrating a trig formula 3D Vectors: Closest distance (2 lines)

Why do users findit so effective?

Animating transformations

Visualising the principles of Calculus

Amazing 3-minute tutorials!

TEACHERSnd Autograph 3.2 so easy to get going, as it

has clearly been written with teaching in mind.

The Extended Licence (including home use)is the most popular option, offering fantastic

value for teachers and students

YOUNGER STUDENTSlove the way Autograph introduces them todynamic new views of mathematics

ADVANCED STUDENTScan use Autograph to push the boundaries of

their mathematical knowledge on their own

Autograph 3.2 - the best just got better

Without doubt, purchase of Autograph shouldbe included in a Maths department budget -
