Mathematics
- A program to teach how to manipulate basic algebraic expressions
For example, the student could see an equation, and could drag with the mouse a term of it and drop it in the other side of the equation, with opposite sign.
This could have several configurable levels, for instance, in a level they could not drag and drop, but only select and open menu to "substract this term from both sides", and then there could be an animation that shows how the term is substracted, and canceled. There could also be menus for things like "reduce to common denominator", "take the common factor", "distribute"...
