Description
Summary:With the introduction of Chrome Book by Google in 2011, Chrome books had been gaining its popularity due to its performance and price point. With the capability to access web content, Chrome Apps and the ability to store most of its data on the cloud, it became one of the educational tool adopted by schools and academic institutes. As more and more academic institutes seeks to integrate technology into teaching, the need of educational apps grew. And now, with the emergence of online programming platform, programming can be performed and executed on the web, allowing students and developers to write code on the go. Hence, the existence of a mathematical computation environment will be worthwhile and interesting to have. The aim of this project is to develop a Chrome Application capable of mathematical computation, allowing users to perform mathematical computations on Chrome Books in particular. Thus, adding to the pool of educational apps and providing convenience to the users by leveraging on the technologies available now.
