For reference, I whipped this up just to test it out. While my handwriting usually sucks, this isn't too bad.
I am opposed to a paperless math classroom. In fact, I strongly believe that students need to get their hands dirty and work through problems. This is a way, in a setting with multiple devices, to switch things up and get some paperless responses. Maybe it's a 5 question quiz. Maybe it's a single drawing that students need to use to show that fractions are equivalent. But whatever it is, this is not a replacement, just an enhancement, of good teaching.
Happy "What Is McGowan Gonna Do NEXT" Fishing
