Mathshare from Benetech - the new tool for learning Math - 22nd November

Dear all,

Thank you for attending the National seminar series on the topic ‘Post Pandemic Education of the Visually Impaired’.

As a continuation to this series, on the 22nd November at 11 AM; Bookshare shall present the new “Mathshare” tool, which has been specially designed for teaching math to the print disabled students.

What is Mathshare

Mathshare is a free problem-solving tool that makes learning math easier. With Mathshare, students can solve problems step-by-step and explain their reasoning with a note. This helps students stay focused and shows teachers how they got their answers. Mathshare is free for teachers and students.

How Mathshare Helps Students

Many students struggle with learning math. Some need help staying organized, some have trouble with legible handwriting, and others may have learning differences like dyscalculia or dysgraphia. For all students who want to learn math, Mathshare makes it easier to learn and helps build positive math experiences.

Key benefits:

Maintain organization and focus – step-by-step problem solving makes it easier to work on problems in smaller parts

Explain reasoning – note-taking lets students explain their thinking

Evaluate learning – teachers can evaluate not only student answers, but also their reasoning

Make learning accessible– built-in features like speech-to-text make using Mathshare accessible to students with learning differences and disabilities
