FLASHCARD ARITHMETIC v3.4 Registration $ 10.00
MISC JAN91 FLASHCARD MATH ARITHMETIC EDUCATION
FILES: flashc34.sdn
The FLASHCARD software family helps a student practice her
arithmetic facts. Originally developed simply to improve
speed, we found it useful as an initial teaching tool as
well.
The student signs on by typing her name and may choose
from a menu of activities.

Choosing ADDITION, for example, she sees a screen with up
to 100 problems arrayed at the left. Beginning with the first
problem, each one is highlighted and reproduced in a large
window at the right. As the student types the correct answer,
the next problem pops up. If an error is made, a CLUE window
appears to help the student visualize the problem.
FLASHCARD offers full flexibility to the teacher or parent
in tailoring program presentation, performance and feedback
to each student's individual needs. Parent/teacher sets the
following control parameters for each student by name:
- Colors: Any item in FLASHCARD can be set to any
available color. - Difficulty: You set the range of values
for top and bottom numbers. You can let the student
concentrate on her fours in multiplication, for example. -
Size of task: You set the number of problems to be done at
one sitting (up to 100) - Problem Order: You decide if the
student sees problems in order (1+1, 1+2, 1+3, 1+4, etc) or
mixed up. - Timer: You may specify a maximum time limit per
problem. - Sound: You set the extent and type of audio
feedback.
The function which lets you configure FLASHCARD for each
individual student is menu driven for ease of use, with
simple displays and context sensitive help information.
FLASHCARD also records a history of every student's
progress in a text file called PROGRESS. You may review,
print or delete the PROGRESS file at any time.
FLASHCARD requires MS-DOS 2.0 version 3.3 or greater; IBM
PC/AT or compatible; at least 256K of available RAM; EGA or
better video adapter and monitor. A hard drive makes it
faster, but is not essential. FLASHCARD is written in Turbo
Pascal and uses standard Turbo I/O drivers.
