24x7digital Releases TimesTables 4.0

24x7digital has announced TimesTables 4.0, an educational title for the iPhone and iPod touch which teaches the basics of multiplication with an emphasis on learning the times tables and becoming very fast at recalling multiplication facts from 0 x 0 to 12 x 12.

TimesTables has four distinct learning modes: a times tables grid, flash cards, multiplier list flash cards, and an animated apple orchard. The 12 x 12 grid shows multiplication facts in a table giving the student a visual representation of the times tables. Students can tap each fact to view and listen to the multiplication product. The flash cards allow a student to train themselves on their multiplication facts by swiping through flash cards and tapping the cards to view and listen to the answers. The animated apple orchard teaches the concept of multiplication by showing a number of trees each with a number of apples. Students can tap the trees to skip-count the apples in groups.

TimesTables also has a game mode which tests the student's recall of multiplication facts with timed drills of sequential or random multiplication problems. The unique keyboard entry forces the student to enter the correct answer instead of choosing from a set of answers. Scores are tracked for multiple players and displayed on a high score board. All settings are stored on a per-player basis to facilitate learning by all members of a family. Apple Game Center users can compare scores on the global leaderboard.
