Brendan Desilets wrote asking about IF for teaching. He was thinking
mainly
of reading. A company which gave this plenty of thought is Topologika in
the UK,
who have sold my (now ancient but thoroughly playable) Giantkiller since
1988,
to teach maths as well as improve reading. It might be worth contacting
its owner, Brian Kerslake, for info (brian@topologika.co.uk).
