The activity of unwinding of the algebraic expression in the successive lines comes tightly inspected and monitored to every individual action, signalling timely, means communication vocal, any mistake of unwinding, of method, of calculation, of wrong utilization of the parenthesis and the eventual mistakes in the transcription of the data, until the conclusion of the whole expression. These modality of unwinding agree with the pupil of to have a precise sight of the operations of calculation to develop, with the varied passages emphasized from the colors:
red for multiplications and divisions;
dark blue for additions and subtractions.
Every individual mistake comes restored in the square "Data-Evaluation", for the successive evaluation of the Teacher, according to the following data:
- parenthesis of mistakes number;
- mistakes of copying of the numbers;
- mistakes of operating mathematician;
- number miscalculations;
- carried out number expressions;
- total number mistakes.
During the phases of writing come carried out automatic controls to facilitate the correct disposition of the numbers, of the marks and of the parenthesis, and, besides, to emphasize means coloring the eventual open parenthesis, to verify the correctness of order in the disposition of the parenthesis, to emphasize in red or in dark blue the operations to
develop with priority, to monitor the formal correctness of the expression during the whole unwinding.
