Money Madness 1.0 by William Jimerson. Reg.Fee: $10
is a fun and challenging game in which one or two students compete in a board style game environment. They are sent around the board in a random manner, as determined by the throw of electronic dice, and visit shops where they must figure their total bill or figure their correct change. Answering the problems correctly gains the students some money. Incorrect answers costs them a bit. Some spots on the board are bonus rooms where lucky students are given some cash just for showing up. One room has the lottery where a very lucky student could win big.

Timed Math 1.0 by William Jimerson. Reg.Fee: $15
provides an excellent way for teachers to assess the mathematical level of their students on an individual basis. It will present a screen of 50 math problems and allow the student to answer them as long as the timer has not run out. The level of problems and the time limit allowed is set by the teacher. If the timer runs out before a student has finished all of the problems, or if the student finishes before the timer runs out, the results of their attempts at the problems will be displayed. The screen cannot be cleared by the student without the password.
