U C MAS students initially use an abacus which is very similar to the Zhusuan (Chinese abacus) and it has 17 rods. The abacus is used while keeping it flat on the table. After 24 hours of classroom training and subsequent home training, the students can develop the image of the abacus (Zhusuan) in the right brain and move the beads by using corresponding manipulations for addition. And over a period of 2 years, students will be skilled to do all operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication & division.
