MATH AND SCIENCE for Windows, Version 3.0   
   
Purpose:  In MATH AND SCIENCE, the first five programs are 
aimed at Grades 1 through 6 and help teach the four basic 
arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, 
multiplication, and division.  The last five programs 
present real-world applications of physics and math - great 
ideas for science fairs!  For kids aged 9 to 16.  
  
The first four programs give you the option of solving a 
randomly generated problem or one you enter.  You also have 
the option of solving the problem yourself or having the 
computer show you, in a step by step fashion, how to solve 
the problem.  In Addition Tutor, you get practice in adding 
from 2 to 6 numbers (with 1 to 6 digits each).  Subtraction 
Tutor provides column subtraction problems.  The program 
gives optional practice in 'borrowing' concepts.  
Multiplication Tutor helps you learn how to multiply numbers 
with up to five digits.  You enter your answers just like 
you work them on paper - column by column.  In Division 
Tutor, you obtain help in solving long division problems.  
Problems are solved just like you would on paper and 
remainders are optional.  In Flash Card Math, you get 
practice in all the above skills.  The level of problem 
difficulty can be varied and, based on performance, the 
computer will encourage moving to different skill levels.  
Also has optional timer.  
  
Circuits allows you to build electric circuits from 
batteries, switches, and light bulbs.  See effects of 
different circuit types, burned out bulbs, etc.  Levers 
teaches you about the three different lever types and forces 
required to balance them.  Moon Lander gives practice in 
understanding concepts of speed and acceleration as you try 
to land on the moon.  Study basic oscillations with Pendulum 
-- see effects of changing lengths, weight, and friction.  
Plots of motion are given.  Water Wheel demonstrates the 
exciting world of chaotic dynamics.  Examine wheel motion as 
different water flow rates are used.
