A Problem-Solving CAI--Factor-Q.
Maredi, Mphahlele; Oosthuizen, H. J.
Computers & Education, v25 n4 p235-50 Dec 1995
Factor-Q is a problem-solving computer assisted instruction system for teaching polynomials in grades 9-12 that addresses the limitations of most problem-solving programs, among others, the user interface. The system is designed to help students master the skills of factorizing polynomials. It demonstrates the ease with which inadequately trained teachers can use the computer for reinforcement in mathematics. (Author/AEF)
