Many self-leaning packages have been developed. Parents are unhappy

to pay the on-line package subscription for their children to learn

mathematics. Teachers also feel that these packages are not tailored

for their own pupils. The authors used Excel to develop some lessons

so that pupils can learn in an environment which they are familiar

with. Parents need not to pay a single cent. Teachers can modify the

contents easily to fit their pupils’ need. As the author used Macro

and sliders in their development, all leaning is interactive.

Furthermore, the examples are not static. Pupils may have many

different examples during their learning.
