How the Game Works
Kahoot! Algebra by DragonBox is a comprehensive introduction to algebraic concepts, covering:
- Addition
- Division
- Multiplication
Recommended for children aged five and above, this app employs a unique pedagogical approach based on discovery and experimentation. Within a playful and vibrant game setting, players manipulate cards to isolate the DragonBox, which gradually translates into understanding how to isolate X in an equation. As the game progresses, cards transform into numbers and variables, revealing the operations of addition, division, and multiplication.
The game is designed to be self-guided, though parental involvement can help in applying these skills to traditional equation solving on paper. It's an excellent opportunity for parents to engage with their children and even brush up on their own math skills.
Developed by former math teacher Jean-Baptiste Huynh, DragonBox has earned acclaim as a prime example of game-based learning. Its effectiveness has been the focus of research conducted by the Center For Game Science at the University of Washington.
