My Take
When our 8th grade students received this app during my computer classes I immediately had them download this app. I thought it was a great app for students to preform calculations. The students like this app because they find it easier to use than a traditional calculator.
How I Use It
I used this app as an alternative to a traditional calculator. The students loved it because it allows them to simply write the calculation. It might remind one of using paper and pencil. You do have to be careful when writing math symbols. Since I don't have the neatest writing some of my calculators weren't preformed correctly because of poor penmanship.

Why use a program that needs keyboards for math symbols? Just write them!
I like this app as it takes guess work out of equations/numbers on paper. Screen caps allow students to submit answers to CMS'. Students like the magic of handwriting transforming to print before their eyes.
Very happy that e auto-calculate function can be turned off so students still have to solve the problem before checking their work.

Easy, interactive way for students to solve equations!
MyScript Calculator is a great interactive app that is an easy way to incorporate technology into the classroom.

However, this app is can only be used as a calculator. It does not enhance the students learning of how to solve different equations.
