Program Overview
Mission
Since 2005, Fluidity Software, Inc. has been researching, designing and developing state of the art education and scientific visualization systems aimed at revolutionizing the way people learn. Fluidity has achieved considerable success in acquiring funding from the federal government to pursue the research and development of its core products. This funding has come in the form of grants and contracts from the U.S. Department of Education, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the National Science Foundation (NSF).
Program Description
FluidMath includes the first Collaborative Whiteboard designed specifically for Math teaching and learning and enables teachers, tutors, and students to share the same virtual Mathematics whiteboard and workspace in real-time. FluidMath combines the familiar and natural experience of sketching math problems with the power of computer-generated solutions. Users simply write math expressions and make drawings on the screen of a touchscreen computer while FluidMath recognizes the handwritten math notation and sketches and generates solutions in the form of algebraic expressions, computations, graphs, and dynamic animations. FluidMath enables teachers and tutors to easily create, distribute, and provide feedback on Mathematics activities, assignments, and self-grading assessments via the web. It is also a platform for Collaborative Problem Solving on which students work together to solve math problems.
