generation of multi-touch, multi-user, computerized desktop surfaces is showing

math skills compared to peers learning the same material via the conventional
paper-and-pencil method. How? Through collaboration, mostly, as well as by
giving teachers better tools by which to micromanage individual students who
need some extra instruction while allowing the rest of the class to continue
moving forward.
