Micro Math
Educational Programs
Micro
Math, a new series of educational math programs for 12-16 year
olds, has been launched by PM International.
Part of the more extensive Master Math package, Micro Math is intended for use on
the Sinclair ZX81, Timex 1000, Commodore PET, and VIC-20 in schools and
colleges as a computer-assisted learning aid and at home as a
self-tuition course.
A random number generator originates problems, and
the student is prompted to answer.
If an incorrect answer is keyed in, the student is
given a clue about the theory behind the problem, and is prompted to
answer again. If an incorrect answer is again keyed in, the correct
answer is displayed together with a complete explanation.
Micro Math,
priced at $50, comprises 6 program suites, each containing 4 programs
which are available on two cassettes. Subjects covered include algebra,
geometry, differentiation-calculus, and statistics.
