Mobile math lab for cell phones created

Israeli scientists have developed a mobile math lab application for cell phones, providing students with experiential, interactive ways to learn math. UPI reports.

"The University of Haifa researchers said problems, graphs and functions can be sent to others via text messaging, with the applications available online.

The program was developed by Professor Michal Yerushalmy and colleagues at the university's Institute for Alternatives in Education. He says the program can be installed on most cellular phones, enabling the phones to function as computers, able to perform mathematical functions ranging from elementary school geometry to high school level calculus.
