Students were given market data from multiple US cities and asked to create scatterplots, quadratic trendlines, and equations for revenue, cost and profit. They used WolframAlpha as a computational assistant system (CAS) to help evaluate the data and perform calculations. The project involved using both WolframAlpha and Twitter to complete the economics analysis and share results.

- 1. Using a CAS in the Classroom with Twitter With WolframAlpha as the CAS
- 2. The Project ? Students evaluate the market data in several different cities throughout the United States (data is contrived and cities are not identi?ed) ? create scatterplots ? quadratic trendlines to represent Demand curves ? Students then create Revenue, Cost and Pro?t equations
