eActivity Application
The eActivity application lets you input and edit text, mathematical expressions, and ClassPad application data,
and save your input in a file called an “eActivity”.
A basic eActivity can contain text along with application data,
which is embedded as a row or a strip. A row can be a “Text
Row”, a “Calculation Row”, or a “Geometry Link”. A strip can be an
“application data strip” (Main, Graph & Table, Geometry, and so on).

Tip:
A variety of eActivity files are available for download at the CASIO Website.
After you download an eActivity file, you will need to transfer it from your computer to your ClassPad. See the
instructions provided at the CASIO Website for more information.

Creating an eActivity
Basic Steps for Creating an eActivity
1. Start the eActivity application.
• This displays the eActivity window as it appeared the last time it was used.
• If you are already in the eActivity application and there is data on the display, tap [File] and then [New].
Note that [New] clears data from the display without saving it.
