Indices
Indices Tutor develops the user's confidence and skill in re-writing terms in index form with roots, brackets, powers and reciprocals … and vice versa!

This program has proven to be excellent for the teaching and consolidation of the basic aspects of index notation before more complex algebraic expressions are tackled. Progress can be swift through the levels and completion of the final level offers clear proof of competency at the topic.

Features
> 10 levels of challenge, from expanding brackets with powers to reciprocals of roots and powers.
> Levels include conversion from index form to root form, and vice versa.
> Normal syntax rules of writing expressions are followed, including omission of powers of 1.
> Prompts for reciprocals, root signs, brackets, fractional indices, negative indices, etc, allow students ease of use and give them exposure to the correct terminology.
> Accepts either solution where there are 2 answers - those with and those without brackets.
> Where repeated incorrect answers are inputted, the correct answer is displayed.
