Number Crunch - Show #20

Program Functionality: B / Version 2 which is shown in our demonstration is a big improvement over version 1! The interface is still a little confusing but we don't have very good suggestions on how to clean it up at this point. Additionally, we think the opening animation is bulky as it might add a cool factor to the app but it doesn't make it any more functional.

Purpose: B / The student we tested this app on enjoyed the app but it is apparent that having the clock on them was distracting to their thought process.

Overall Educational Value: B / Clearly some students will get a lot out of the app where others will struggle. Working out the problems in the window is difficult for some students. Once again, if there was some data to pull out for teachers, it would be much more useful for schools.

Cost: $0.99

Recommendation: We recommend this app for personal and school use.
