Abstract

The final product will include a suite of three app-based puzzle games aligned to national math standards for number sense, algebraic thinking, and problem solving. The games will be designed for use in grade 5 and 6 classrooms where students develop and apply content expertise to solving challenges. The games will include an adaptive engine that assesses and adjusts content based on student level of performance, a back-end system to organize data, and a reporting dashboard to present measures of student performance, persistence, and creativity. The project team will also develop teacher resources for suggesting how to incorporate games and activities into classroom instructional practice to reinforce lesson plans and learning.
