ABSTRACT
The structure of a CAI system developed at CET (Centre
for Educational Technology) in Israel will be
presented.
The main success of this system has been in the area of
arithmetic in elementary school. Implementation and
evaluation results will be analyzed. A logical expan-
sion should be towards the teaching of mathematics at
secondary school level. The difficulties encountered
in the development, and the reason for a joint project
with the University of Waterloo will be discussed.
