Algebra I Homework Tutor
from Missing Link Software is
the best algebra tutorial
program I have seen. First, it
works with algebra problems
that the student types in from
his or her own textbook.
Second, it can generate an
unlimited number of random
algebraic problems.
The software includes an
editor for entering algebraic
notations. After a student
enters an algebra problem
and begins typing the steps
leading to a solution, the
program automatically
evaluates each step. The
tutor enters a single check if
the step is correct; an x if the
step is incorrect; a check and
a question mark if the step
could eventually lead to the
correct solution; and a
double check for the correct
