Times Test

When a student’s name is added to the list of students, a new record is created for that student.  After that, every time that student taps on their name they will begin a drill.  The first time through the student will be presented multiplication facts in a certain pattern in this order: 0 x 0, 0 x 1, 1 x 1, 0 x 2, 1 x 2, 2 x 2, 0 x 3, 1 x 3, 2 x 3, 3 x 3, … 8 x 9, 9 x 9. When the student gets to 9 X 9 successfully, the drill resets, then repeats the same pattern except that the problems in each number group are presented randomly.  For example, multiplication by 4 will still occur after multiplication by 3, but 0 X 4, 1 X 4, 2 X 4, 3 X 4, and 4 X 4 will now be scrambled and presented in a random order.  Once a student gets to the random drill they will start with the Random drill each time they return.  As each fact is presented the student taps a digit to answer. If the student selects correctly the correct answer will display and they can press “Next Problem” to continue to the next problem. If they choose an incorrect response a “?” appears and remains until they press the correct digit.  The app is designed to terminate the current drill when the student enters three incorrect answers.  The three problems will be displayed as well as the time elapsed during the drill.  The last problem missed, the date, and the elapsed time will be saved.  The student can end this day’s work, or press reset to begin again for more practice or to try to improve how far they can get before making a third mistake or if they can improve the time it takes to complete.
