Math Games Gamified Learning

Project Overview

Teachers and parents have reached out saying their students/children are logging in just to play the games they like with no real direction on the platform. This was further reinforced through research via Google Analytics page session duration, page views and other data. Shortly after data analysis was completed, one on one teacher interviews were conducted to find the correct direction. A clear need for a more guided approach for the platform was the correct approach. Students need to feel self-driven in or out of a classroom setting but have fun doing it with the games they know and love on MathGames.
