Wayang Outpost

At the Wayang Outpost, the Goal is to Learn and Have Fun at the Same Time.

 

* Help is always available, and you are never penalized for asking for help.

* There is more than one hint for each problem, so ask for help again if you need to.

* The pre-test helps the tutor know what kind of help you need, so don't worry if there are problems you can't figure out. You'll get the help you need.

* The help function requires that your computer's sound is turned on and that speakers or headphones are plugged in. A broadband internet connection and Adobe Flash Player (available free of charge) are also required.

* You can use the "formulas" button to see formulas for solving the problems.

* Please read all of the steps below before using the tutor.

* When you have finished reading the steps, click the enter icon at the bottom of the page to try out the tutoring system.
