Filed:

Dec 10, 2004

Appl. No.:

11/010164

Inventors:

Gregory Springer - Dallas TX, US
Matthew Diaz - Dallas TX, US

International Classification:

G09G 5/00

US Classification:

345629000

Abstract:

A method of teaching with computer devices having displays. Virtual transparent overlays and underlays are generated that can be annotated with indicia such as words, marks, and other selected indicia. Alternately, or in combination with a transparent overlay as discussed above opaque overlays can be generated for selected uncovering of information available on a computer device display.

International Classification:

G06F 15/00

US Classification:

708200

Abstract:

An electronic device capable of graphical data analysis is provided. The device includes a processor capable of manipulating numerical data and a graphical data. An input is provided for issuing instructions to the processor to manipulate the numerical data and graphical data. The device includes a memory device, a software program, and an output. The memory device is for storing graphical data and numerical data. The software program is stored in the memory device and is operable for dynamically linking the numerical data and graphical data, such that when the numerical data is updated the software automatically updates the linked graphical data, and vice versa. The output is operable for displaying graphical data and numerical data.

International Classification:

G06F 7/38

US Classification:

708490

Abstract:

A device operable to maintain a document comprising a processor, a first problem space including a first variable having a first value, and a second problem space including a second variable having a second value, the first and second variables and the first and second values stored such that when the first variable is: the same as the second variable and the first value is different that the second value, the second value is maintained when the processor modifies the first value.
