The impact of Covid-19 has forced students to use more digital learning tools and incorporate their web browser into everyday learning. Students rely on the browser to help them find solutions to their studies, including math. To help these students on their learning journey, we are excited to announce that Microsoft Math Solver will be available as a preview feature starting with Microsoft Edge 91 stable.
Microsoft Math Solver allows a student to snap a picture of a math problem – be it handwritten or printed – and get an instant solution with step-by-step instructions to help them learn how to reach the solution on their own. It includes a mathematical keyboard so students can easily type math problems instead of hunting around a traditional keyboard for the characters they need. It also provides many options to continue learning with additional materials such as quizzes, worksheets, and video tutorials to help students continue to practice and grow their math skills.
We are rolling this out as a preview feature, and are still exploring the possibility of including the feature permanently in the future. Our goal with including Microsoft Math Solver in Microsoft Edge is to bring more equity in learning by democratizing math learning for students who need help but are unable to get access to help.
