Marcy Cook Tiles Super Computation School Edition app for iPhone and iPad

Marcy Cook’s conceptual based math tools have been used for over 25 years, in dozens of countries, and by tens of thousands of students. Marcy Cooks’ hands on approach to mastering fundamental computational skills is now available for the iPad.

General Premise:
Each digital task card has 10 numbers missing. Using reasoning, logic, and problem solving skills the user must identify the missing numbers using the 0-9 tiles given to the left of every problem. This encourages users to apply concept based, problem solving skills that instill true conceptual understanding. Users progress through 20 different digital task cards per operation set, “unlocking” problems as they go.

Features Include:
• 20 unique, digital task cards per operation set, with a stepped progression in their difficulty
• A scaffolded approach to learning. As the user progresses through the digital task cards, fewer prompts are given, encouraging independent thought, reasoning, and problem solving.
• A pen and eraser tool that can be used to mark regrouping and to do scratch work on the division tiles.
• A hint button that gives specific prompts on the first 6 digitial task cards in each set, then reminds users of the best strategies for subsequent task cards.
• A “check” system that rewards careful placement of tiles and encourages the users to look over their work before submitting answers
