  • All I get is the "Program stopped working" message - which might be OK if it had ever STARTED working! Can I try to recompile the source? Weren't you going to open-source this project??

  • Obviously, I meant "fly a helicopter" not "fly a car" in a previous comment:)

  • I totally agree with AlanScotch bellow. Using technology is not just substitute the old method by technology. There is way more to offer. I am a computer science student and to see math avoid traincrash, fly a car, create static inverted pendulum (using fuzzy logic) or drive a car avoiding obstacles just gives me chill..:) I mean it excites me.

  • Its not enough! Get them into using math to write computer programs that fly vehicles, shoot cannon balls & hit targets, crash trains (avoid crashing) etc ..... in STRATCH and LSL in Second Life -- - that's how you need to teach Math.

  • what can the program do? does it makes drawing giometrical problems? because right now my class works on some complex problems, and the drawing are often wrong...

    sorry about my english.

    ohh, also the kinect sees infra red, so can it so things like this:

    /watch?v=QgKCrGvShZs

    ?

    if it can do this, and you will program this I'll download the softwar and giveup my kinect device in order to have a btter learning exprieance...
