MatchTime App vs Ancient Digital Clocks

MatchTime™ Software features a programmed learning approach for students who struggle with time concepts. Four progressively difficult levels provide sequences of multiple choice exercises. Students simply find the clock that matches the large sample clock in the first three levels. Level 4 introduces the concepts of “earlier” and “later.” Uses both digital and analog clocks. Extensive record keeping tracks student progress. Level 1 focuses on matching the hour hand, while Level 2 introduces 15 minute intervals. Level 3 provides exercises using all the minutes, and Level 4 progresses to clocks that are up to four hours earlier or later than the sample.

We are fascinated with history, numbers, and how ancient people kept track of things with their numbering systems. And how those changed over time. This app with allow you to see the current time in Egyptian Hieroglyphs, Ancient Greek numbers, and Roman numerals by swiping left and right. And for the time, you can change the background color and foreground color by swiping up and down. And if you are adventurous enough, you can even create reminders and calendar entries - but you will be doing that in the number system that you selected for the time.
