Rational Algebraic Expressions vs Math Game

The DOST Courseware is a locally-produced, all-original Filipino highly interactive multimedia educational application packages that are conceptualized, digitized and produced as spearheaded by the Science Education Institute (SEI-DOST) in partnership with the Advanced Science and Technology Institute (ASTI-DOST) and in cooperation with the Department of Education (DepEd), Philippine Normal University (PNU) and University of the Philippines-National Institute for Science and Mathematics Education (UP-NISMED), which aims to develop information and communication technology learning innovation to support the upgrading and improvement of science and mathematics education in the country. The DOST Courseware are provided for free to schools and are also made available online as supplemental resources for teachers and student as a fun and interactive approach to e-learning and blended learning. The Grade 7 DOST Courseware is composed of 120 lessons overall, 73 lessons in Science where it covered the domains on: Matter; Force, Motion and Energy, Living Things and Their Environment and Earth and Space while the 60 lessons in Mathematic covered the domains on: Numbers and Number Sense, Patterns and Algebra, and Geometry. The Grade 8 DOST Courseware is composed of 118 lessons overall, 61 lessons in Science where it covered the domains on: Parts and Functions, Ecosystems, Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits, Structures and Functions, Biodiversity, and Evolution, while the 57 lessons in Mathematics covered the domains on: Linear Equations, Quadratic Equations, Rational Algebraic Equations, Integral Exponents, Radicals, Arithmetic Sequence and Geometric Sequence. The themes of the courseware for Grades 7 and 8, Magicademy, Freddy’s Lab and D’nayao will surely amuse the users as they explore these distinct worlds while learning at the same time.

Spark the motivation to learn. Enjoy learning. Get good at math without even noticing. Math Game is a 60-second arithmetic game. Tap an operation and the round starts: three lives, questions that get harder as you go, no menus, no settings. Children think they are clearing levels and collecting buddies. Every round is mental-math practice. 【60 seconds is exactly as long as a child is willing to give】 • Before homework, before bed, while waiting for the bus • Points for every correct answer, double for streaks, and a last-10-seconds alarm that makes you push for one more • The results screen lists every miss with the correct answer, so a mistake is learned once 【15 animal buddies grow stronger with you】 • Cat, dog, bunny, bear and panda are there from day one; penguin, fox, koala, frog, lamb and more unlock through total correct answers, streaks and world rank • Each buddy has 12 stickers that light up the more rounds you play together; at the end of a round your buddy cheers or roots for you • Your Math Card tracks total correct answers and climbs from Rookie to Rare, Epic, Legend and Mythic 【A small goal every day, rewards for streaks】 • One small goal on the home screen: play a few rounds, get a number correct, or try your weakest operation. The goal is always just a little more than usual • Streak days 2, 3, 7, 14, 30 and 100 bring stickers, buddies and badges • The weekly board resets every Monday and adds up every round you play, so playing more always counts; the high-score board keeps your single best round against the whole world 【Why math gets better while you play: the research behind the design】 • Retrieval practice (the testing effect): actively recalling an answer builds memory far better than re-reading (Roediger & Karpicke, 2006, Psychological Science). Every question is a retrieval. • Spaced practice: many short sessions beat one long one for long-term retention (Cepeda et al., 2006, Psychological Bulletin meta-analysis). One 60-second round, a little every day. • Arithmetic fluency: speed and fluency of basic fact retrieval predict later mathematics achievement (Geary, 2011, Developmental Psychology); timed practice with immediate feedback is an effective way to build it (Codding, Burns & Lukito, 2011 meta-analysis). • Immediate feedback: feedback is among the strongest influences on learning (Hattie & Timperley, 2007, Review of Educational Research). Right or wrong shows instantly, and every miss is reviewed with its correct answer. • Games and motivation: game elements have a moderate positive effect on learning outcomes (Bai, Hew & Huang, 2020, Educational Research Review meta-analysis). Buddies, stickers and streaks handle "one more round"; the questions handle "getting fluent". • Difficulty that grows with you: questions level up automatically so the challenge stays right where it is doable but takes a little effort. 【Parents can relax】 • No login, no account: open and play; the game remembers the device • No ads, no in-app purchases, no chat • Photo avatars are visible only to you; others on the leaderboard see a built-in animal icon. Every row can be reported or blocked • Made for grades 1–6, and for anyone who wants faster mental math One round a day, until your child says "one more".
