Program Limitations

  • No Interactivity
    There is no interactivity in our materials.
    This is a coach's website. The coach provides the interaction, not the website.

  • Limited graphics
    There is little use of color or advanced graphics. Most figures are minimal line diagrams.

  • Website not designed for student use
    Unlike most of the math websites out there (and there are a lot of them!) this website is not designed to be directly used by the student. This is a coach's website, intended to provide source materials and instruction to allow the coach to teach math to 5th, 6th and 7th graders. That doesn't mean that students are prohibited from using the site, but it doesn't provide any 'feedback' to them. That's the coach's job.

  • Virtually every problem has the answer available. This may or may not be desirable, but anybody can find the answer to any problem. As the coach, you may want the student to come to you if they can't solve the problem, rather than looking it up theselves.
