Differentiation built in

A 0maths class can be more differentiated than on any other platform:

  1. Difficulty levels
    At a click of a button, students can make a question easier or harder. Depending on the question type, this may mean there's an illustration, an interactive widget, some other form of scaffolding, or it may just mean easier numbers.
  2. Same topic, different year
    Pupils in a mixed class can be doing stage appropriate work in the same topic - ie direct the kids to area and there's everything from rectangles, through triangles, kites, parallelograms, trapezia, circles and segments (and more!). Pupils will see a stage-appropriate list of topics. There are, of course, difficulty levels within each of those topics, with stage appropriate limits.
  3. Personal adaptations
    Out of the box, 0maths is more supportive than most platforms.

    But because we care a whole awful lot, that is not all we can do, no it is not. Teachers can customise 0maths for each child's particular needs. We have about 30 personal adaptations. Some affect the appearance, such as dyslexia fonts and settings, or a minimally distracting environment for ADD / ADHD. Others affect the questions asked, such as the default difficulty level, minimally different questions, or whether to push a learner or go slow. These can be set up in bulk to save time.

  4. Foundation topics
    At a click, pupils can go back and revisit foundation topics.
  5. Setting assignments
    As 0maths gets to know each student, we can (optionally) tweak the difficulty level of each question to each pupil's individual ability. Pupils can also be free to revert to foundation topics for topics they're unfamiliar with.
  6. Worked solutions
    Glossary linked worked solutions keep the whole class moving forward.
