Teachley: Fact Flyer
© 2016 Teachley, LLC
This classroom friendly, leveled, multiplication and division, math facts experience provides a lot practice with flash card-like problems in a short amount of time. There are several minor design issues to note: The format starts feeling repetitive after a few levels, and the game mechanic -- where you capture the correct answers -- creates a setting where children can be forced into selecting a wrong answer for the wrong reason. The game would be improved with a pause button and we'd like it if the airplane sounds had some connection to the movement of the plane. We'd also like instant feedback on correct or incorrect answers, a better (more accurate) progress meter, and visual (rather than text) hints. Despite these drawbacks, Fact Flyer is still a useful math facts delivery system, especially because of the school-friendly record keeping system, that lets you set up individual accounts for each child (with a photo profile), and classroom lists as well. We also like the visual menu and the way the app recycles wrong answers, giving you another chance to get them correct. This app is a follow-up to the app Mt. Multiplis, and is designed to help you apply strategies learned in other Teachley apps.
