Fred:<br>I was thinking about that, but sorta like the idea that the XOs take up the whole screen. Of course I can change it so the sliders are on the x and y. I'll throw together something for the continuous, and then throw a toggle between continuous and discrete mode.<br><br>Mel:<br>I'll repo it later. I don't see a scrawled over jpeg. Unfortunately it isn't my hack. I like the idea for an interactive mode, the idea really hadn't crossed my mind.<br> <br>--Jason<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 3:40 AM, Mel Chua <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mel@melchua.com">mel@melchua.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Repository!

Clever hack!<br> <br> An easy "double utility!" tweak would be "divide mode" - see<br> scrawled-over jpeg attached.<br> <br> Interactive mode - have the top ask "4*3= ?" with a blank space to type<br> the answer, kids can use the sliders to help them find the correct<br> answer to give. Maybe save scores as a function of time (15 questions<br> beat the clock) which would make an easy measure of progress and<br> collaborative competition.<br> <br> I'll try it with small cousin this weekend - she can add and recently<br> started grasping the "repeated addition" thing, but hasn't really<br> understood multiplication as a separate idea as far as we can tell. If<br> she comes up with feature ideas, we'll see how fast I can remember pygtk.<br> <font color="#888888"><br> --Mel<br> </font><div><div></div><div class="h5"><br> Jason Rock wrote:<br> > Here is an alpha version of the idea as well as a mock up for anyone<br> > interested.
