Educational software company launches free math fact computer game

DURANT, Okla. - EntSun -- Studies indicate that only 1 of 10 college students can pass a basic multiplication test. This contributes to mathematical failure and alarming drop-out rates in high school and at the collegiate level.

To address this, educational software company Math Facts Matter, a division of Schoolware, Inc., has released a free educational math fact game called "Space Challenge," a quick and easy math fact assessment tool for anyone in grade 3 to adult. Players answer a set of math facts and compete to rank on the universal score chart. The fun, mobile-friendly challenge quickly benchmarks "F3," or "fearless fact fluency" using colorful graphics, video, and an engaging storyline. Teachers can receive diagnostic reports for students by email.

Space Challenge and other Math Facts Matter products are designed to boost the math instruction of classroom teachers bogged down with educational and administrative tasks.
