Lunch and Learn with Kurt Keckman, vCalc

vCalc for math-empowered disciplines

vCalc is a social media productivity tool that is building the world’s premier calculator for the web and mobile devices.  Through the power of crowd-sourcing, vCalc.com contains the world’s fastest growing library of equations and data. vCalc empowers users to create “Your Math” with the tools to develop and share equations and data, and the ability to publish data using wikis and web-enabled calculators by using any combination of equations from vCalc’s global community and from social network. vCalc is used by the public and in universities in over sixty countries, where users are creating, collaborating and calculating information to build the world’s greatest utility for the math used in our lives.

Students in disciplines empowered by math may benefit from their own additions to vCalc and by the work done by others. Through collaboration, vCalc lets communities develop useful and accurate math capabilities that empower users to do the work in specific domains without letting the arithmetic get in the way. Come and learn about this innovative new technology and how it may give UMBC professors and students a great advantage in science and industry.
