The California based company Stokes Publishing Company, Inc. distributes under the label "The Educator®" calculators optimized for teaching purposes. 

Both the keyboard and the display are made from translucent glass and plastics. Using a simple overhead projector the teacher could demonstrate easily the function of a calculator. 

The TI-34 introduced by Texas Instruments in 1989 and redesigned in 1996 developed itself to a very successful school calculator. The one to one replacement from Stokes Publishing Company was this Educator Advanced overhead calculator.

In 1997 the Advanced got a more stylish housing, view the new Advanced here.
