Description

A computer-assisted mathematics practice program that presents addition and subtraction facts for timed retrieval practice with visual representations, adaptive pacing, corrective repetition, feedback, and rewards.

Components

  • Math Flash computer-assisted instruction for math fact practice: Math Flash is the computer-assisted instruction program used in both fact retrieval tutoring conditions. "In Math Flash, the student was presented with an addition or subtraction math fact with the answer; the math fact flashed on the screen for a second or two," after which the student typed the fact from memory while a number line shaded to represent addends or minuend and subtrahend. Correct answers earned sparkling numbers and applause; incorrect facts reappeared until typed correctly, and flashing speed adapted to performance, with treasure rewards for each five correct facts.
