The Salt Lake Tribune (11/27, Schencker) reported on a computer math game "being used in a handful of classrooms in and outside of Utah and by a number of Utah home-schoolers. Scott Laidlaw left his job teaching math at a private school in Salt Lake City to create it along with other programs through his new company Imagine Education. He acknowledges it was a risk but said it seemed like one worth taking based on the success of one of his previous math games." In one game called "Ko's Journey," the main character "faces challenges and tasks that require middle-school math, such as ratios, graphing and geometry."
