I can't begin to tell you how much Sketchpad has changed the way I teach. I feel like I've kind of "grown up" as a teacher with it (starting way back in college with what was probably Sketchpad Version 1)—at this point, I'm not sure how I would teach math without it. —Matt Miller, Washington High School, Cedar Rapids, IA
