Massively Multiplayer Online Math Game

admin — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 07:50:28 +0000

A massively multiplayer online game requiring players to employ mathematical concepts could revolutionize the teaching of mathematics at the middle school level, according to Stanford mathematician Keith Devlin. That’s the age when math and science proficiency plummets among U.S. students. Devlin says the game project would be so complex and expensive that the federal government would likely have to spearhead it. But, he said, a pilot project showed such a game would be do-able.
“We are at a moment in history where mathematics education, at least at the middle school level, could change completely and dramatically,” Devlin said.

For the past five years, Devlin has been part of a pioneering effort to create a massively multiplayer online game, something to rival “World of Warcraft,” but tailored as a tool for mathematics education. “World of Warcraft” is a wildly successful role-playing game that currently has more than 15 million players.

Devlin thinks the role-playing approach has tremendous potential, but based on his experience, he said, it may take a national initiative to make it happen. He explained his views, and exhorted his peers to work to promote such a project, at the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) annual meeting in San Diego. Devlin collaborated with a group from private industry to develop a prototype of such a video game to help teach middle school students math by fully immersing them in a simulated three-dimensional environment.

Educational Insights MathShark

admin — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 12:39:59 +0000

Educational Insights brings a terrific idea to life in Math Shark, a combination skill-building tool and calculator. The shape, colors, flashing lights, and beeps–all reminiscent of a hand-held electronic game–will appeal to kids who may not otherwise be interested in practicing math. (Parents: the sound is unobtrusive, but can be turned off.) Math Shark offers eight different skill levels and seven skill groupings: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, decimals, fractions, and percentages. After every question a red or green flashing light and a corresponding beep let you know whether or not you answered correctly. If you get one wrong, the right answer flashes, and the question keeps appearing, along with any others answered incorrectly, until you get it right.
Kids will want to practice their math on this portable skill-building ELA that turns math into a video game. MathShark quizzes eight different skill levels in addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, and percentages, AND works as a full-function calculator with the press of a button. Problems are displayed on the LCD screen either vertically or horizontally.

During the spirited contests, elementary and middle school students will compete against classmates and students from neighboring schools, using their math intelligence to advance through timed video games – with hundreds of their classmates cheering them on. The competitions not only allow the opportunity to demonstrate math proficiency but students will also compete for bragging rights as well as prizes. The winner at each tournament will win a FLIP HD Camcorder. Second-place finishers will receive a Fujifilm FinePix Z30 Digital Camera while a $50 Target gift card will be awarded to the third-place honorees. Teachers will also be acknowledged for their contribution in the classroom with Amazon gift certificates.
