SPONSORED CONTENT -- (StatePoint) As a new school year gets underway, it’s time to zero in on the tech products that can help your students ease into their academic routines and succeed in the classroom. Here are some of the greatest products on store shelves today that can transform a student’s relationship to school subjects ranging from STEM and language arts to music and physical education:

Math made magical: Put the best tools in the hands of your math wizard with the fx-991CW ClassWiz, the latest enhancement to Casio’s scientific calculators. With an all-new quadruple-graded LCD display, your student will be able to easily find their cursor while writing and modifying expressions. All of the calculator’s functions can be accessed through a convenient Math Catalog, which also hosts 47 scientific constants and 40 measurement conversions. By partnering the ClassWiz with an internet-capable mobile device and scanning a QR code on the calculator’s screen, solutions can be graphed and visualized through the Casio-hosted virtual workspace, ClassPad.net.

Note-taking made simple: When it comes to synthesizing information, there really is no replacement for writing things down by hand. Now, there’s a simple way to take notes the “old-fashioned way” while getting all the benefits of digitization. With a smart pen, your student’s handwritten notes are compatible with all their devices. These notes are also editable, searchable and highlightable, taking the fuss out of studying for exams and organizing materials for essays.

Music made beautiful: Bring life and light to your young music student’s world with the CT-S1. The sleek minimalist design and uplifting sound of this Casio keyboard will allow them to focus solely on the music, develop their unique style, and energize and encourage them to play more. With a simple interface, and a color palette to suit every aesthetic, the functionality and design of the CT-S1 is all about the individual musician, and its compact design and portability are well-suited for on-the-go students short on space.

Sports made supportive: Student-athletes can hone their skills in their sport of choice with new technology. From smart footballs that track spiral velocity and throw distance to connected soccer balls that measure trajectory, speed and spin, today’s tech tools on the field function like a coach available to offer detailed, accurate feedback 24/7.

This school year, you can encourage your student to thrive. With the latest and greatest technology, they can be inspired and supported to meet their potential.
