ALGEBRA EQUATION GENERATOR

Most software today is written with the student in mind.  The 
ALGEBRA EQUATION GENERATOR has been written with the teacher in 
mind.  As teachers in today's schools we now have more 
heterogeneous grouping with multiple levels of student ability.
This places an extra burden on us, especially when it comes to 
prepararing materials for each of these levels.  The ALGEBRA 
EQUATION GENERATOR has been designed to make these preparations 
easier.

The ALGEBRA EQUATION GENERATOR will generate and print worksheets
that are used to practice and reinforce basic equation solving 
skills.  From the Main Menu, you will have a choice of three types
of equations:

For each of these choices, you have an option as to which roots 
you wish to obtain

                             ROOT OPTIONS
_________________________________________________________________

1. LINEAR     1.  Whole   2.  Integer   3. Fractional   4. Decimal

2. QUADRATIC  1.  Whole   2.  Integer   3. Fractional   4. Complex 

3. SYSTEMS    1.  Integer       2.  Fractional     3.  Decimal
__________________________________________________________________
Once you have made a choice of which types of equations  you need, 
set the level of difficulty.  This may be done selecting a range 
usually between 1 and 5 according to the following chart:

                                      DIGITS
                  ----------------------------------------------
                  BEGINNERS           MEDIUM            ADVANCED
                  ----------------------------------------------
EQUATIONS:
LINEAR

    Number            1              2 or 3              4 or 5

QUADRATICS

    Number            1              2 or 3              4 or 5

SYSTEMS

    Number            1                 2                   3


In version 3.1 we have incorporated a WYSIWYG (What you see is what
you get) window that shows a sample problem to be printed, a counter 
showing the number of problems generated, the spacing between problems,
and the starting number for the exercises.  A few notes signal the 
end of the generation cycle and the need to print out each worksheet.

                             
In this manner you may personalize your instruction by generating
worksheets that are adapted to each student's mathematical maturity.
You may generate anywhere from 2 to 100 exercises.  I recommend 
shorter work-sheets for beginning students (8 or 10 exercises) and 
longer ones (12 - ?) for middle level and advanced students.


Each worksheet and its answer key is identified by a three-digit 
random number, this allows the separation of the answer key if need be.


The ALGEBRA EQUATION GENERATOR uses a randomizing process to generate 
different exercises for each worksheet.  This randomizing process depends 
on the computer's internal time clock.  If your computer does not have 
a battery-operated internal clock, you will need to enter the time 
on your computer before each session with ALGEBRA EQUATION GENERATOR.
