About Moogie

As I become more familiar with blogs and how they fit in with everything else on the Internet, I realize people can arrive at THIS blog from a lot of different places, not just from our Home Page. So that means I'd better explain who and what exactly Moogie is!

Moogie on the Net is a totally free*, elementary, middle, and high school math intervention and remediation software designed to assist teachers and their students with mathematics proficiency. Originally designed for the Ohio Math Proficiency Tests, Moogie on the Net has been expanded to meet the ever-changing requirements set forth by the NCTM for 4th, 6th, 8th, and 10th grade learning objectives/outcomes, By itself, Moogie on the Net is drill and diagnostic software. It is not meant to teach students or to present them with new material, but rather, to help them learn the process of solving problems. Teachers teach; we just help.First and foremost, unlike most math tutoring or test-preparation software, Moogie on the Net is much more than a computerized, electronic flash card. With Moogie on the Net, there are no canned or stale questions because the numbers always change! By itself, Moogie on the Net leads students through all the Learning Objectives for the desired grade level and targets the individual questions students have the most trouble with. By re-trying those tougher questions - always with different numbers - students learn the process of solving the problems!
Moogie on the Net is divided into 3 portals, one each for students, teachers, and parents. I have posted a quick overview for each.
