Assistive Tech Works with Decimals!

I found this really cool educational assistive technology that helps students who are struggling with the concept of decimals. I rented it from the Educational Assistive Technology Resource Center ( or EATRC) at Western Washington University. Click here to see where to find it. This tool allows students to utilize tactile means to explore the concept of decimals. This type of approach can benefit students who struggle to stay on task, especially those ones that really don't like math. Being able to do math in like this will make it seem more fun too. Kind of like how you put your dog's pills in a piece of cheese.
