New Algebra Software Shows Visual Learners a Different Way to Think
Bellevue, WA (PRWEB) July 10, 2008 -- Algebra Vision (http://www.algebravision.com) is a new software program that helps students learn, by providing an environment where they can play with algebra. It lets them experiment with equations, using a whole toolbox of theorems, without the tedium of doing so by hand, and lets them isolate variables by dragging numbers to the other side of the equals sign. It is a learning aid both at home and in the classroom.
"(I)t is a hands-on tool to reinforce the concepts (of algebra). Teachers call that 'tactile mode', and this program does a terrific job in that regard," says Lori Wright, owner of Seattle-based tutoring service The Inquisitive Mind (http://www.theinquisitivemind.com/).
Algebra Vision is only distributed online, and is currently being used in tutoring centers, schools, and homes across the world. It runs on Windows XP/Vista/Mac OSX and costs $19.99(US).
Florida schoolteacher Erika Jarvi says, "I really love (...) that Algebra Vision is available for students as a tool. (...I)t's a great piece of software to show the kids a different way of solving certain topics in algebra. Moving around the pieces of the equation, with the positive/negative sign assigned to the number, is a great way to make sure the kids get the sign right."
This is the first release by Regular Berry Software, a software development company in Bellevue, WA.
About Regular Berry Software:
Regular Berry Software is a developer of educational software. It was founded in early 2008 by Sean Berry, a programmer and math tutor. Berry wanted to give his students something more tangible to play with while they learned algebra - a notoriously abstract subject compared to geometry.
