The aim of each session is to improve on past sessions. This can be measured by either the accuracy of the results or the time taken to complete the sessions. Both measure can provide for a competitive and measurable challenge for students.

(Some students just want to see how many different complementary remarks come up, although it will take a while to get through them all.)

The software is not intended to teach students mathematics skills, as these should be provided within a certified learning environment. It is however, a proven mechanism to improve the proficiency of learnt concepts.

The basis of repetition is a fundamental prerequisite for improvement. Therefore special consideration should be given to the duration of sessions and the number of test questions attempted. Obviously too many questions or an extended time period will discourage students, whilst on the other hand some of the games based software available in today’s market, presents little maths repetition relative to the length of time dedicated to game play.

Exceptional improvement results have been realised by regular and ongoing sessions rather than concentrated efforts. In a home environment, we recommend 10 minutes prior to school time and a further 10 minutes after school. (preferably before the TV shows)

Due to the varying levels of difficulty for each of the modules, and students own differing skill sets, numbers of questions should be set to levels where students can maintain a high level of concentration for the duration of the session. Whilst defaults are provided, the values can be changed in the “Configuration Settings” section.
