THE BASIC MATH EVALUATOR and COURSE explained

The math product I offer, Basic Math Evaluator and Course, is special to me.
I was a Speech Improvement Teacher in a high school in the 1990’s.
My students always failed a basic math course that was offered to them
in place of the regular course. The way they were taught was degrading
and ineffective. This hurt me because I was poor in math in high school
in a similar way. I resolved to write a program with my new found BASIC programming skills.
The staff of my school was cooperative and supportive.

The program, as you see it, was the result of this effort. It can be

used in a course. Problems can be presented so that several types of problem
appear in a sequence. Students must recall how to do them again and again.
Because they work individually, tutoring in place is possible.

After a test, the program shows you a list of the skills you know and don't

know based on your answers.

We had great success with this approach. The program has been upgraded

to work with BBC BASIC for Windows and has three variations of questions.
The problem of images was cleaverly side stepped by presenting images as pictures,
instead of being generated each time.

With modern computers and the internet, it is now available to you!

Thank-you TES, Thank-you Russell! (BBC BASIC creator). I hope you use it and
it’s ideas will be adopted.
