Students must use their vector skills to steer their boats across the river. There are five increasingly difficult levels, the last two deceptively difficult. A score is kept for each ten tries where each level is worth a different number of points.
The Motorboat Vector Challenge works well when used with a projector in front of the class. Groups of students can work through solutions to the five levels and come up to see if their answers are correct.
The software is downloaded as an exe file. When run, this exe file will install the Motorboat Vector Challenge software onto your computer.
System Requirements:
Pentium PC or equivalent
Microsoft Windows 98 or better
