Brainingcamp Benefits | Brainingcamp Math Software

1. Rigorous learning
Learning with Brainingcamp transcends the memorization of simple facts and procedures. Hands-on learning with visual and interactive simulations helps students develop deep and meaningful math understanding. Engaging problems elevate the quality of learning by teaching students to synthesize and apply math concepts in authentic ways.

2. Real-World Connections
Students are more motivated and likely to succeed when they see the relevance and value in what they learn because the brain works best when it can find meaning and connect ideas. Brainingcamp connects math to everyday life and provides a context for learning. The program brings meaning to math by enabling students to connect new math ideas to experiences they are already familiar with.

3. No installation
Brainingcamp runs online and does not require any installation. This means that you can use Brainingcamp from any computer with an internet connection. New content and updates to existing content are regularly added and immediately available whenever you log in.

4. Engaging and Fun

The mind of today’s student works differently. Students exist in a rich, multimedia world where they need a multidimensional learning experience beyond using just textbooks alone. Fortunately, today’s technology provides opportunities for more exciting learning than ever before. Brainingcamp's interactive and realistic simulations include animations and challenges that are scored to make learning as fun as playing video games. This is important because teaching is most effective when students are motivated to learn.

5. Visual Representation
For many students, math is just a confusion of meaningless numbers and formulas. Brainingcamp makes abstract concepts and equations more meaningful with supportive visual representations that help students build the mental images they need to make the concepts more meaningful and understandable.

6. Interactive

Research shows that students whose math teacher conducts hands-on learning activities outperform their peers by 70% of a grade level. But math does not easily lend itself to interactive learning as evidenced by the fact that only about 25% of math teachers use hands-on activities compared to about 70% of science teachers.Brainingcamp simulations are interactive and hands-on, providing active learning opportunities for your students.

7. Problem solving

Solving challenging problems help students view math as a relevant real-world tool and deliver rich learning through ‘aha’ moments where concepts stick in the brain. Rather than simply memorizing facts, students learn to analyze, synthesize, think, and explain. With practice exercises, the context and procedure is often fairly obvious. In contrast, problems teach students to become comfortable with real-world situations and standardized tests where context may not be obvious or may not look the same as the specific examples they have practiced. Problems can be used to have students work in groups to collaborate and discuss mathematical ideas. By presenting their solutions, students share ideas and clarify their understanding. By listening to their peers, students see alternate solutions and deepen their understanding.

8. Supports Multiple Learning Styles

Simulation is a great way to support multiple learning styles by providing an interactive and visual learning environment. Brainingcamp helps students with multiple forms of representations: pictures, models, graphs, numbers, words, and more. Brainingcamp math software is extremely popular with struggling students who are often very capable and competent, but just don’t learn well with traditional textbook instruction. You will find it incredibly rewarding to watch these students develop a passion and confidence for math as you open new doors of opportunity in their lives.

9. Audio Narration
Brainingcamp includes audio narration so that students can focus just on learning math. This is particularly important for ESL students. Extensive visual representations and interactive activities let students discover math through hands-on learning rather than by digesting information.

10. Easily Integrates into Your Teaching

You can teach with Brainingcamp in the classroom using an overhead projector. You can also let students work in the computer lab on their own. Content is listed according to self contained topics and can supplement or replace a lesson. You can also let students work on the software on their own in the computer lab.
