PART II 

In this part, you will begin exploring the ClassPad’s soft keyboard. As you will 

see, the soft keyboard is not just an everyday keyboard. It does contain a 
regular keyboard, but also many other very useful keys. 

1.

 

2D Math Page 

Sometimes in the instructions you will see a “/” between words. The “/” is 
a shorthand notation commonly used when writing instructions for 
working with menus. For example, Edit/Clear All indicates that you 
should open the Edit menu and select Clear All
