AlgeBasics description
AlgeBasics facilitates the teaching and learning of basic algebra

AlgeBasics is capable of generating thousands of algebraic expressions for drills to ensure that the student masters these very important basic skills in algebra. It includes sums on addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, order of calculations, removal of brackets and simple indices such as 2b2 x 5c x 3b.

The sums get progressively more difficult if a student is doing well. If a student is doing badly, the numbers will be kept simple to let him focus on the concepts.

AlgeBasics - Facilitates the teaching and learning of basic algebra:
· addition and subtraction of algebraic terms
· multiplication and division of algebraic terms
· removal of brackets
· order of calculations
· simple indices e.g. 2b2 x 5c x 3b

Have you ever wondered why your grades in Mathematics were not better?

Better grades come with understanding and lots of practice.

Our software will help you understand concepts and provide plenty of practice, with immediate feedback so you know whether you've got the sum right the moment you key in your answer. Some of our programs such as AlgeXpansion, AlgeFactors, QuadEquations, SimulEquations and SigniFigures can even help you do your homework!

Get the software now and see immediate improvements because they will help you understand the concepts easily. And with plenty of practice provided, you will excel in no time!

Unlike some other programs, AlgeBasics is able to accept alternative correct answers. For example, 1x+2y or x + 2y or 2y + 1x or 2y + x or 2y+x, etc will all be marked as correct for the standard answer x + 2y. This feature proves to be very important as it avoids getting the student confused if a correct answer is marked as wrong.

It allows two players to compete with each other on one computer, reducing the number of computers required for a class by half. Each player can do the sums at his own pace.
It prints two separate detailed reports, each showing the sums done by the individual player.

Level: Secondary One, or Year 7 (Age: 12 years) and above

Here are some key features of "AlgeBasics":

· up to 200 different sums per session
· sums get progressively more difficult if a student is doing well.
· accepts alternative correct answers, for example: 3 + 4x instead of 4x + 3; 2y - 5yx instead of -5xy + 2y; +1x or +x instead of x, etc. This eliminates marking errors common with other software.
