Quadratic equations, factorization, and imaginary numbers are all math concepts often learned in high school algebra. Now imagine determined fourth, fifth or sixth graders quietly working through these concepts on their own. This is exactly what you would see if you peeked into many Kumon Centers.
As a learning program based on ability, rather than age or grade, Kumon Instructors across North America are helping children learn without limits by inspiring them to reach heights they never imagined possible. It is common to see children in Kumon Centers studying math and/or reading material two to three years above their school grade level.

Algebra has often been referred to as the “gateway” course with research showing the positive correlation between the early mastering of algebra and college graduation and employment income.
Kumon, the world’s largest after-school math and reading program, understands the importance of advanced study and discovering the true potential of children. As a learning program based on ability rather than age or grade, it is common to see children in Kumon Centers studying math and/or reading material two to three years above their school grade level.

Make Your Childrens to learn algebra with “Hands-On Equations 1 Lite” which brings out the joy of learning in a fun way. Algebra can be a tricky subject to masters but with the help of this app it becomes child\'s play!
The app takes advantage of the iPad’s visual and touch features to demystify complex algebraic concepts.
The app works like this –
The unknown X variable is represented by a blue pawn on the iPad screen while the constants are represented by number cubes.
The game pieces can be moved by the player and placed on a balance scale to represent the two sides of the equation.
The student simplifies the equation by moving the game pieces to solve for the unknown X.
The student resets the problem to conduct the check.
Simple touch features are used to move the pieces around.
An expert instructional video is included
An intuitive user interface makes the app easy to use.

MultiplexCalc is a multipurpose and comprehensive desktop calculator for Windows. It is small and simple to use but with much power and versatility underneath. It can be used as an enhanced elementary, scientific, financial or expression calculator. MultiplexCalc contains more than hundred internal constants and functions (algebraic, trigonometric, hyperbolic, transcendental, etc;) to satisfy your needs to solve problems ranging from simple elementary algebra to complex equations. Its underling implementation encompasses high precision, sturdiness and multi-functionality.
MultiplexCalc also has the unlimited ability to extend itself by using user-defined variables. You can add your own variables to MultiplexCalc in order to convenience your work. Any instance of a formula can be parsed once, and calculated many times with different variable values.
