Math Education for Children with Disabilities
The easy-to-use tool that lets students do basic math directly on the computer...
Available for both the PC and Mac OSX
Now students can do basic arithmetic problems: Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division-directly on the computer. Choose from 300 sample problems or type in your own. MathPad displays each problem in the correct vertical format.
With MathPad, students solve problems just as they would using pencil and paper. They decide when to regroup or show a remainder. You'll be able to review their work as well as their answers.
Promotes inclusion
MathPad is a great tool for inclusion settings because it enables students with disabilities to do the same math problems as their classmates.
Enter your own problems
Enter problems directly onto the MathPad Problem List or load problem lists created with a word processor. MathPad sets up problems using the correct vertical format.
Check problems
MathPad places a check (correct) or a dash (incorrect) on the Problem List after the student completes a problem. Teachers or student can easily go to the Problem List to check answer. The program also puts a check or an "X" next to each complete problem when it's printed out.
Who should use MathPad
MathPad is the ideal solution for students who:
- need help organizing math problems
- have difficulty doing pencil and paper math
- have vision problems that require large-size fonts, high-contrast background colors, or speech feedback.
