The geometry for CK12 is pretty bad. Eventually we'll get good stuff that works for ALL kids that is computerized (like on the iPad). That way it teaches, ensures the student learns it, then tests the student and sends results to the teacher.

That's where I'm going with what I'm trying to do. A cross between 1 minute timings, write in your answer, get the answer, say if you got it right or wrong, then move on. The teacher gets a summary with work written on the device. (thinking math, here).

Then extend a quizlet like app to actually teach new stuff with 30 second to 3 minute videos that step you through a concept, require answers along the way, then fill in the blank worksheets to help memorization along with 1 minute timings of the information.

These proven methods of teaching can be done on tablets, I've just never seen them done CORRECTLY.

If only I could figure out github and xcode and how they work together!
