DragginMath vs Tap To Say

DragginMath is a new way to teach, learn, and do algebra. This app converts equations into interactive pictures. Get serious about math: turn equations into playthings! Yes, it's fun, but this is definitely not a toy. See the internal structure of equations. Then commute, associate, distribute, factor, simplify, and solve by dragging math under your fingertips. This is real algebra, not something that sort of looks like it. Not a function-graphing app. Not restricted to a few limited examples or prepared problem sets. This app can do an astonishing amount of symbolic math, but it is aimed at the algebraic novice. Do you or your students need help understanding the order of operations? Unsure what the various algebraic properties are or how to use them? Is solving an equation just some arcane mystery? DragginMath lets you see and experiment with symbolic math concepts. You still have to direct the work yourself, but without burning through erasers or reams of paper, and without needing someone to check your work. DragginMath is not curriculum. It is a tool, and it is curriculum-independent. If your textbook has expressions and equations in it, DragginMath can help you teach it, or learn it. You might even enjoy doing it. Are you a teacher? Create animated lessons just by using the app as you normally would. Add annotations and homework problems, then email them to your class within the app. Students watch your lessons, do their homework, and email it back to you within the app. Returned homework is formatted for easy management.

TapToSay is a fast, low-distraction communication app. Tap a tile, and it says the word — that is the whole interaction. Built for nonverbal and minimally verbal children, and for anyone who is understood more easily by tapping than by talking. One tap gives instant speech: no menus, no setup, no learning curve. WORDS AND PICTURES Every tile pairs its word with a picture — an AAC symbol, an emoji, or your own photo — so a child sees the meaning, not just the letters. Twelve everyday categories work out of the box: People, Food, I Feel, I Want, I Need, Play, Activities, ABC, Colors, Shapes, Numbers, and My Day. BIG, CLEAR TILES Four columns of large, colorful tiles with bold labels — easy to hit, easy to read, sized for small hands and busy classrooms. WORKS OFFLINE Speech happens on the device. No internet connection is needed to communicate — it keeps working on the bus, at home, anywhere. MADE TO STAY PUT TapToSay can run locked to its own screen so a tablet stays on TapToSay instead of drifting into other apps. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Personal data and photos stay on the device; nothing about a user is collected or sold. Open source (MIT). TapToSay is a simple tap-to-speak AAC app — built so that being understood takes one touch, not a lesson.
