Math Practice Software for Standardized Tests

Wayang Outpost is an intelligent electronic tutoring system that uses multimedia and animated adventures to both help prepare middle and high-school students for standardized math tests, such as the SAT, MCAS and CA-Star, and to assist with review for students preparing for college-level mathematics classes. Funded by several research programs at the National Science Foundation, and the U.S. Department of Education, Wayang Outpost is state-of-the-art technology designed to increase standardized test scores and help teachers in their assessment of students' strengths. Wayang Outpost is designed to learn along with the student. As the student progresses through the math problem presented, Wayang Outpost adjusts instruction, using individualized strategies that are effective for each student. It is available free to students, teachers, schools, after-school programs, and for use from home. If you would like an account for yourself or your child, sign up online. You may also log in as a guest to take a look at the program. As a guest, you may access and practice all of the same learning sessions and quizzes as registered users, but your sessions will not be saved for future log-ins.

If you want to use Wayang Outpost, you'll need a computer (either Macintosh or PC) with a broadband connection to the Internet, a web browser that is Java-enabled, and Flash Player 8 or better. Most computers come with Flash Player already installed. If you need to upgrade, you can download the latest version (free) from Adobe.
