[BlindMath] Field Test Opportunity for Practice2Master Fractions

[Li Zhou]

Dear Teachers of Students with Visual Impairments:

    APH is seeking field evaluators for Practice2Master Fractions, an
iOS app designed to help students practice fraction calculations.
Among its many features, this app allows students to do the following:

    1. Perform free practice in fraction addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division and get assistance from the app when
needed.

    2. Take drills on fraction calculations and save drill reports for
future reference.

    3. Use randomly generated problems, preloaded problems, and
user-created problems for practice and drills.

    4. Change settings to make randomly generated problems suitable
for students' level of study.

    This app supports iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch running iOS 8.0 and
above. The field test is expected to take place from September to
November 2017. Teachers working with elementary or middle school
students who are currently studying fraction calculations are
encouraged to participate. Participating teachers are expected to text
this app with their students and then fill out an evaluation form.
