As a next step then, you might try mixing Vedic math with standard math...


That is also what the people behind this Youtube video are attempting to do, but their video is a little too fancy and unclear for my taste:

@Oylok,
Thanks!

We've been using a slightly different form of "lattice" math (one we found on the Khan website) and it really seems to help him keep the numbers organized.

More importantly, it's been interesting for him to see that there is more than one way to arrive at an answer -- it's kind of changed his way of thinking about math.

I was looking at some text sites yesterday about vedic math but they left me a little confused. I'm going to check out your video link!

I saw a segment on the Khan Academy on 6O Minutes.
It was very impressive. Apparently, its free of charge
and those who use it have a lot of freedom.

I hope that u will let us know how well it works out, boomer.
Good Luck with it. Does Mo like it ?
