 | | Since Sketchpad is able to accept topological information from a human being in a picture language perfectly natural to the human, it can be used as an input program for computation programs which require topological data, e.g., circuit simulators. | | | Sketchpad drawings are stored in the computer in a specially designed “ring” structure. | | | A Sketchpad user sketches directly on a computer display with a “light pen.” The light pen is used both to position parts of the drawing on the display and to point to them to change them. |

| | Sketchpad can be used on a single computer connected to an overhead projector for whole-class discussions, or on single computers, or in a computer lab for individual or small-group activities. | | | Sketchpad allows students to draw an object and explore its mathematical properties by dragging the object with the mouse. | | | Sketchpad makes innovative use of technology and helps students develop both mathematical literacy and fluency with technology. |

| | VR Sketchpad |
| | Abstract: This paper describes VR Sketchpad, a pen-based computing environment for inputting and locating 3D objects in a virtual world. | | | VR Sketchpad has then added many features and now supports not just direct one-to-one mapping of object translations but also the higher level complex figure configurations and substitutions (diagram meaning, as well as replacement object symbols). | | | This paper presents VR Sketchpad, a freehand drawing interface for rapidly generating three-dimensional geometry in VRML format by tracing diagrams on a transparent window over an image source. |
