Abstract
We have developed an interactive environment for learning by posing arithmetic word problems that can be solved by either an addition or subtraction. Through experimental use of the environment on desktop computers, we have confirmed that problem posing with the environment is useful for arithmetic learning. In this paper, as the next step, we implemented the environment on media tablets connected by wireless LAN. Because of this implementation, we have realized development of environment for using usual classroom, visualization of the student’s learning performance and suggestion of teaching a method of problem posing. Through this practice, we have confirmed that the first grade students were able to pose problems in the environment, and the teaching and learning by using environment were accepted by the teacher and students as the effective teaching.
