I'm the guy and my name is Trenton. I did submit a patch but have had no =
feedback. I have been working on KMathTool and my aim is to make =
KMathTool into a Math's tutoring system. I've been busy incorporating a =
Theory Widget that displays the relevant theory and application of the =
mathematical section in question. I will also add the following sections =
to KMathTool.
=20
Trig - 2D, 3D, Area Rule, Cosine Rule, Compound Angles, Equations, =
Graphs, Identities, Sine Rule.
=20
Alg - Algebraic Fractions, Absolute Values, =
Calculus/Differentiation, Compound Inc Dec, Exponents, Functions, =
Hyperbola, Inequalities, Inverses, Linear Programming, Logs, Improved =
Parabola, Quadratic Equations, Quadratic Theory, Simultaneous Equations, =
Mensuration, Products, Surds, Series, Speed, Improved Straight Lines.
=20
Geo - Analytical Geometry, Circles , Concurrency, Similarity.
This might seem a lot but the teaching we use is really effective and I =
would dearly like to pass it on.
Also Anne-Marie could you please tell me what changes you are going to =
make so that I could learn from my mistakes.
I'm also struggling to find a method that will display text with =
graphics that I can animate. I want to use this to visually demonstrate =
the mathematical methods i.e.: Fractions with Equations, the learners =
really understand when they can see that to get rid of the fraction you =
divide the whole of the left and the whole of the right by the LCD of =
the Fractions. It makes a huge impact in their understanding if they can =
see this in action. This same method works even better with Geometry.
I have been trying to use HTML with GIF anim's but it seems rather =
crude. What could I use as a flash replacement? My previous programming =
experience is from 1988, writing .bat files in dos. So any guidance =
would be much appreciated. Once the framework is completed the adding of =
the teaching should be easy from there on. Also I would not like to =
duplicate work here, so any ideas and comments and help would be handy.
Kind Regards
Trenton Carr
