Has anyone heard of MathType?


Recommended Posts

Apparently it is a way of typing in or selecting math so a student doesn't have to write out everything in higher level math problems by hand?  Just thinking this might be an interesting option for dysgraphic kids and kids with low working memory?  Never heard of it until today.  Someone mentioned it on Dyslexic Advantage.

Microsoft provide a free program called Microsoft Mathematics, which can be used for doing lower and higher level maths on a PC.

Numbers can be typed in, and also a 'pen tablet' can be used, as it will recognize hand written numbers.

A page of maths can be also scanned and opened with it, to work on.
