Now here is one app that should come right out of the box. Pun always intended, but mathematics is often a divisive subject. Some students are great at it, but a fair few struggle.
And if you have an under 12 in the house that could use some brushing up on this subject, then iMath (http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/2c234114-edc4-43b0-befa-25888032b29c) is pretty much the perfect application for the purpose. It is well designed and offers plenty of engaging questions that test the abilities of children in everything from simple calculations to fractions.
Here is what the official description says:
“iMath is designed to help children under the age of 12 to improve math ability and develop interest in mathematics. iMath supports many question type, include Multi-Choice question, Fill-in-blank question, Comparision question Find largest question and Find smallest question.”
Most educational apps come with unattractive or unsightly interfaces, but the first thing that strikes you when you fire up iMath is the eye-pleasing design with bold and colorful text.
The free app offers several exercises that help young kids grasp many of the underlying concepts of mathematics — from basics like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to advanced ones like decimals, fractions, measurements and arithmetic laws.
Regular updates bring bug fixes and additional modules for practicing, and the app supports Windows 8 on all processors, including x86, x64 and ARM.
