The Story
Get to the castle to overthrow the evil wizard! Overcome obstacles and defeat the math monster on the way to the castle. Math problems automatically adjust to a challenging level for the user.
STEM
At Genius Giraffe apps, we are all about STEM for girls. Studies show that girls start to lose interest in STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) after elementary school, but we know girls are just as smart as boys! (Of course boys can use our apps, too.)
Introducing...
Math for Unicorns and Dragons
Engaging
A fun platform runner game to engage students. Overcome obstacles and defeat the math monster on the way to the castle.
Educational
Students solve math problems interleaved into the game. They will develop foundational math skills without even knowing they are learning.
Adaptive
Automatically adjusts difficulty level to each individual student. Math problems automatically adjust to a challenging level for the user.
Apple Technologies
We plan to use CoreML and Create ML to intuitively select the appropriate math level to challenge each user through machine learning. We also would like the user to be able to handwrite their answers on the screen, and we plan to explore the Vision Framework to implement this option.
