About BeijingMath
BeijingMath is a Web-based math practice environment that combines American style mathematics with the rigors of the Chinese national math curriculum. In China, the basic learning principle is to practice, be challenged, and practice some more. BeijingMath is designed to help students to learn and master the math in a proven, systematic manner. Since its debut in 2011, BeijingMath.com has gained immediate traction in Asian/Chinese communities in North America and around the world.
BeijingMath has the following characteristics:
Integration: | BeijingMath was developed by a panel of education experts and experienced teachers in selective enrollment schools in China and was translated to English by educators from Purdue University, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, and Illinois Institute of Technology to better suit the US education system and culture. |
|
Personalization: | BeijingMath is highly interactive and provides an immediate feedback. Its unique question selection algorithm is based on individual student’s answers to previous questions and the difficulty of the questions is dynamically adjusted to individual student’s needs. Therefore students are given questions at an appropriate level of difficulty, allowing them to work at a pace matched to their abilities. |
|
Systematic: | BeijingMath follows the Chinese national math curriculum. Students only need to follow the order of the chapters of each school year. When they have mastered each chapter, BeijingMath will automatically provide a clear signal that they have passed the current chapter and can move on to the next chapter. |
|
Participation: | BeijingMath provides teachers and parents with the real time reporting to analyze student’s progress and performance. Teachers and parents are able to pinpoint individual’s needs and can create customized assignment to reinforce key skills. |
|
Flexibility: | To address potentially different learning pace between US and Chinese school years, students gain access to ALL six grades with one single login. |
|
Usability: | The user interface is simple and intuitive to follow. Questions are designed with colorful graphic interface to appeal to preschoolers and kindergartners. | |
