The technical skill helps children to strengthen and improve their mathematical competence in calculating with speed, and of course accuracy. Besides improving a child's calculating ability and his understanding of arithmetic, Abacus-Mental Arithmetic will increase the memory power and the concentration of the child. In addition, it encourages the child to give full attention to study, trains him/her listen more attentively and effectively.

      In Thailand, there are many schools have shown immense interest in Mental Arithmetic and they add this subject in a special course to improve their students for various competitions in mathematical programs.

      In the development of this course, we use the Object Oriented Programming Method in designing and developing. We also use the JAVA programming languages known as JSP and Servlets, a JAVA technology, for our main implementations.
