environment that motivates students to succeed.
The major topics
covered in Algebra World are: Expressions, Variables,
Algebra Notation, Pattern Recognition, Integers, One Variable
Equations, Two Step Equations, Ratio, Proportion and Percent,
and Geometry. Each topic has a series of detailed lessons designed
to teach key mathematical concepts. The lessons are followed
by challenges in three skill levels that assess understanding
of the subject and mathematical reasoning ability.
Presenting
Concepts Has Never Been Easier
MathRealm understands that you are challenged each day to motivate
and teach a wide range of students with a wide range of learning
needs. You have a very demanding job. Algebra World
will give you the tools to make your job easier.
| "Algebra
World generates excitement and understanding
in the classroom. Students who have been afraid
of math get involved with this program. It sparks
an interest and produces success!"

World In
The Classroom
Denise Langley, an educator
at Northern Middle School, Accident, MD, uses Algebra World by
projecting the lessons, activities and practice in
front of her class. She also uses the software on a
one-to-one basis with struggling students who need
tutoring in math concepts. Math comprehension has
improved and test scores have been raised since using
the software!
Ms. Langley finds Algebra
World to be much more effective than other supplementary
math materials she uses with students. |
Success
in Various Learning Environments
Why do teachers incorporate
Algebra World into their classrooms? Algebra
World's highly visual and interactive presentations are
perfect for classroom demonstrations. The visualization of concepts
adds excitement to the learning process. Students today relate
more to math ideas that are accompanied by graphics, color and
sound.
Not only is Algebra
World great for classroom demonstrations, it is
also ideal for individual instruction! The eye-catching
graphics and sound effects allow students to see and hear
what is happening. This
helps students to better understand the concepts.

World In
The Classroom
Kathleen Pitzer, an educator
at Ringgold High School, Monongahela, PA uses Algebra
World on an individual basis to reinforce and
teach math concepts for students who are having difficulty
in math and are in jeopardy of failing. Ms. Pitzer
uses the practice component of the software to assess
where students are strong or weak in their understanding
of the material. After this assessment, she encourages
the student to proceed through the appropriate lessons. Ms.
Pitzer finds the software to be very effective in improving
student comprehension of math concepts.
"The software is fantastic
for struggling students because they don't realize they
are learning; they think they are playing on a computer
and not reading a textbook. But testing shows that
they are learning."

Turn Passive
Listeners into Active Learners
MathRealm's research showed that students are not as responsive
to long narrations in software as they are to interactive visuals
and audio effects that draw them into the program as active learners,
rather than passive listeners.
Hands-on virtual
manipulatives with limited text reading and immediate visual
feedback will capture your students' attention and help them
understand concepts, as well as develop logical reasoning.
| "Your
software is captivating! My daughter has struggled in
math for years and was losing interest. Algebra
World
has made her excited about math. Her grades have improved
dramatically."

Motivate
Your Students to Excel in Introductory Algebra
All students can
master introductory algebra concepts. Algebra World gives
students the tools to grasp the concepts and builds their motivation
by sparking their curiosity.
| "The
software does an outstanding job of introducing basic
algebra concepts. Students loved the illustrations and
sound effects, and they enjoyed interacting with the
computer-generated manipulatives. The program was intrinsically
motivational."

Algebra
World focuses on developing concepts
with:
Research-Based Lessons
Our research-based
lessons engage students and develop conceptual understanding
and problem-solving skills.
Learning Tools
Our learning tools
draw students into a concept and encourage exploration.
Interactive Practice Problems
Scored practice problems
provide students with immediate feedback. If a student is unable
to solve a practice problem, the program shows how to solve
it correctly, step-by-step.
Enrichment Activities
Algebra World's
enrichment activities expand understanding of basic concepts and
stir the imagination.
Algebra
World is also Great for Gifted
Learners
| Linda
Nichols, an educator at Kenilworth JHS, Petaluma, CA, uses the enrichment activities in Algebra
World on an individual basis to teach math
concepts for differentiated learning in her seventh
grade AP/Gifted program. She uses the software as
a tool to further her students' knowledge in math
versus giving them more work in areas where they are
overachieving. |
