The BuzzMath Blog

We updated BuzzMath.com to version 1.20, Tue, Feb 9, 2010.

What’s New

• Wow! SMART has approved BuzzMath as a SMART Board READY title. The combination of these two products can be very entertaining and can help to focus the attention of kids in any classroom.
  

• The Individual Student’s Reports now track the progress students make inside each document. You can see how hard your students have worked on a document in order to collect a full star (achieve a score of 100%)!
  

What’s Better

• You can now save and print the Student’s Individual Reports and the Detailed Results for a document.
  

• The first five missions are now unlocked by default (one mission in each strand).
  

What’s fixed

• Minor corrections to missions.

We updated BuzzMath.com to version 1.19, Wed, Jan 20, 2010.

What’s New

• Added Student Portfolios and Individual Student Reports for teachers with printing capability.

What’s Better

• We’ve incorporated a page system for navigating practice documents.
  
• You can continue a document started in a previous session (nice!).
• You can view results for a precise document.
  
• We’ve given teachers a better overview of students in the Teachers’ account.
  
• You can print Class Reports.
  

What’s fixed

• Minor corrections to Mission documents.

• The search engine at the top right now works
• Teacher’s accounts have a pod to quickly see live stats of their classes
