Yenka Mathematics lets you experiment easily with 3D mathematical models, to learn about statistics, probability, geometry and coordinates. It can be used as a flexible demonstration tool - for example, on a whiteboard. Alternatively, students can use Yenka themselves, to learn by experimenting in Yenka's 3D world. There's a wide range of ready-made lessons and activities that you can use in your lessons, and a set of training videos to help you get started. And teachers and students can all use the full version of Yenka Mathematics at home, free of charge.
