Money Skills: How Much Change?
How Much Change? teaches the student to select enough coins and
bills to make a purchase and to determine the correct amount of
change
The student is presented with an item to buy on the right side of
the screen and a number of coins and bills on the left. The student
moves money from the left side of the screen to the right, until
enough money is given to make the purchase.
How Much Change? requires the student to give the minimum amount of
money necessary to make a purchase. However, it will let the student
give extra money in order to simplify the change. For example, if an
item costs 98 cents, the program will accept $1.00 or $1.03, but not
$1.01 or $1.13.
Once the student has given enough money for the purchase, the item
is moved to the left and the student is given enough money to make
change on the right. The student then moves the correct change from
the right to the left (the teacher may optionally select for the
program to automatically calculate the change).
Interface Options:
Supports keyboard, mouse, touch screen, IntelliKeys, and single- or
dual-switch input.
Single- and
dual-switch scanning are built-in (6 different ways), and special
prompts allow blind students to use all levels of difficulty.
