Solving Mathematical Story Problems

Posted by rerickson under Showcase

As a result of trying to help students appreciate mathematics in the context of the real world and improve their ability to solve story problems,  Multispan created patented systems and methods for solving mathematical word problems.   Many occasions of direct inspiration led to the development of a new generation of math and science educational calculators (called meaning calculators) that extend graphing calculators and use patented and proprietary technologies to formulate quantitative word problems.

As part of this initiative, we also developed and deployed an online book concerning Unified Mathematics that demonstrates the use of just Microsoft WORD to create a website.
