Algebra, typically introduced during middle school, is a difficult subject to grasp. It involves a transition from arithmetic processing, which students have come to expect of math classes, to more abstract thinking and symbol processing. Many students find the transition from arithmetic to algebra difficult and get turned off the subject as a
result.
Our goal is to take a genre of games that teenagers find appealing and adapt it to create a fun and engaging learning experience for a subject that they find hard and boring.
ProblemScape is an RPG, that creates an engaging learning environment for Algebra, with a combination of applications, guided practice, and innovative components that promote deeper understanding of concepts.
It is set in the virtual world of Arithma inhabited by Arithmen who can’t do any math. The student not only helps the Arithmen do their problems but also teaches them to solve some of them by themselves. The design is guided by Common Core standards.
