This is a common question we get from our parents - when my child gets a question incorrect, how can Indian Math Online (IMO) help?
Currently, there are two ways IMO can help a child when he or she gets a question incorrect:
- Each question is categorized into a Topic within a Grade. For each topic, we have provided a written explanation of the topic along with examples. We refer to this concept within our program as "Solution Explanation" (SE). A parent (or the child) can access the SE for a particular topic by following these steps:
- Login as the Parent
- From the screen that displays, click on the 'View Results' for a the particular assignment
- From the screen that displays, click on the link "Total Number Incorrect". You will find the notation SE displayed next to it and clicking it will prompt you to either save the document or open it.
- In addition to the concept explanation, we have also developed multi-media illustration of each topic. We refer to these as learning or reading assignments within our program. These multi-media concepts are developed using Adobe Flash and you Adobe Flash Viewer to view them. You can view samples at www.indianmathonline.com/samples
Obviously, there is an alternate method you could use - which is outside the scope of our program. You (as the parent) could print the math problem and take it to your child's math teacher or tutor and ask for assistance. Of course our goal with the program is to 'empower' the parents such that the answers are within our program (see notes below). If you feel there are one or two questions that we can get our math teachers to explain in detail for you, we are happy to consider that and we will do our best to accommodate your request.
NOTE 1: These learning aids are NOT available as part of the IMO Basic Subscription plan.
NOTE 2: I mention above that "Currently" we have two forms of learning aids - well, we are actively working on adding "Step-By-Step" instructions for each of the question - in other words, we intend to provide one way to solve each math problem. This feature is expected to be released some time in the coming months (the scale of our database makes it tough to release for all grades!)
