A computer-implemented method for teaching math is disclosed. The method comprises generating a problem for a user to solve; generating a graphical representation of a number associated with the problem; wherein the graphical representation is selected to facilitate subitizing of the number; and overlaying visual guidance on the graphical representation to guide a user as a means to drawing attention to a learning strategy for solving the problem; receiving and checking a user's input as a solution to the problem; and indicating to the user a correctness of the solution.

A computer-implemented method for teaching math is disclosed. The method comprises displaying a challenge for a learner to solve; displaying in first area a plurality of moveable pieces; displaying a second area defining a receptacle to which the learner can move the moveable pieces in attempting to solve the challenge; and evaluating the learner's response to the challenge.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method for teaching math is disclosed. The method comprises generating a number; generating movable items corresponding to the number defining a number of place values for representing the number; graphically marking place value areas corresponding to the place values; allowing a user to move the movable items into the place value areas to represent the number in terms of its place values.

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method for adapting a lesson. The method comprises for a given learner, forming an expectation of the learner's performance in answering questions of a lesson; adapting the lesson a first time based on the expectation; evaluating the learner's actual performance in answering questions of the adapted lesson; and selectively adapting the lesson a second time if a difference between the expectation and the actual performance is greater than a threshold.
