The TI83 is an excellent resourse for statistics. It will do everything. =
I recommend the instructor take time to learn all the calculator will do =
by reading the part of the manual that deals with the stat part. Then =
just play around with it using some of the problems in any stat book. =
Then use examples in class with the TI83. The students will catch on fast =
and won't need an extra manual or reference. (At least that's the way I =
did it for my college sophomore level class that I taught in the spring. =
:-)

(1) A collegue is teaching a non-AP Statistics course next year
(senior elective) with the TI-83 and was wondering if anyone on the
listserv could recommend a textbook or reference to help.

(2) I'm using the computer lab next year (with Mathematica 3.0.1) to
help teach AP Calculus BC next year (for the first time). Please,
does anyone out there have any pearls of wisdom?

TIA,
