Math Quizzer

Math Quizzer a free app available for the ipad, is a great way for students to work on their flashcards. The chalkboard view allows students to feel like they are in the classroom. Math Quizzer allows for students to pick to work on addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems. This free app also allows its users to work at their own pace. Beginners can take their time and more advanced players can be challenged on their speed. If the user gets the correct answers it will give a pleasant sound and if they are wrong there will be a vibration. While working on the math facts, Math Quizzer keeps track of how many problems the user has answered correctly and how many incorrectlyy (or whoops). I would include Math quizzer into my math classroom during free time or after students have completed their assigned work. With its ability to pick and choose which type of problems to practice on, students at all different levels would be able to use Math Quizzer. The one thing I did not like about this app, was that it allowed the problems to be like multiple choice. I would rather not show the answers to the students using the app.

  1. This seems like a nice and simple app to use in a classroom when students have free time or if they get their work time in a timely fashion. You can just go and pick up the Ipad and just go at it. I agree, I do not like the multiple choice answers because I want my students to be able to know the answer right away.
