LaTrustTec

We have a couple of iOS developers (myself now learning) and most our techs have experience in multiple programming languages like html/html5/php/javascript but as we are now moving one school into a new building and about to start building another any dev plans are on hold for the meantime. I like Wolfram. I will check out how useful it is.

We have spoken to MyMaths before putting this post up and they have no plan to redevelop any of their content to work with iPad/HTML5 due to the size of their development team. Which to be honest I can understand having worked in small development teams before but it is a bit short sighted. Out of all the companies I have spoken to so far they are the only one not planning alternative versions for non Flash devices. I have tried the HTML5 output from Flash with some mixed results, heavy 3D stuff not outputting brilliantly but the majority of stuff was OK. To be honest I think the MyMaths Flash files would output fine but as I say they don't even seem to want to look down that avenue. I will check the Matlab tools out to see if they can produce the goods for if we end up developing this ourselves.

I didn't choose the device, its what we have to use as we are an APPLE TRUST! Please read the whole thread or just offer something that is constructive. The origin of this post is about finding an alternative app or site. We are looking at development but will not be able to start that until later in the year at the earliest.

That sums it up fairly well.

I see how running through Citrix etc would be possible internally but the students access this service (mymaths.co.uk) from home, another issue (1000 issues) if we went this route I'm sure but not saying its not possible. The iPads will be 1to1 devices so will go every where with the student.

Would love to produce but they content they provide is massive and it would take years or a pool of developers to catch up with where they are. Their product covers secondary through to higher education levels and is an excellent feedback tool for assessment of the students progression - check the trial on MyMaths.co.uk - Bringing Maths Alive to see what its all about

We knew about the Flash issue from day 1 of the iPad but it is the device chosen as a 1to1 device for the students. Put pressure on Apple? can't see it making any difference. They do what they do.

Jailbreaking iPads isn't an option when you are an Apple Trust. Just a note. Don't want this thread to become the usual situation when you mention you are looking for an alternative for Flash for iOS. Both sides of the argument are correct, wrong and largely driven by market choices. The web is ever evolving and thats the way it is, but I don't want to get into that here, thats far to larger subject and completely detracting from the answers I seek. Put Simply, I have to find alternatives to Flash be it app or web based, there is no other option.

I had a look at Manga High and alas it is Flash. Doesn't seem to be much out there that can provide the teaching staff with the level of feedback that MyMaths can.

Hi all, We are looking for an alternative to MyMaths that is either web or app based for iPad that does not require Flash to run. We have a large number of iPads rolling out to students across several sites and will be looking to replace a lot of PC/Flash based software for use on the iPad. Any links would be useful. Thanks
