Adapted Mind Math is an online educational platform that combines the knowledge of teachers with the skills of video game designers to offer a game-based resource that encourages students to develop their math skills. The key to Adapted Mind Math’s success is its ability to adapt to the specific needs of individual players.
Using a specialized algorithm, AdaptedMind Math identifies each player’s strengths and weaknesses to create bespoke lesson plans that reinforce existing knowledge while focusing primarily on difficult topics. Each student takes a pretest prior to starting the game, which helps the algorithm determine a suitable starting point and gauge the educational goals of the student.
From there, the platform continually adapts the challenges it presents based on the performance of the student. Upon completion of more play sessions, AdaptedMind Math identifies the student's learning gaps and focuses on the content it delivers. To reinforce this teaching method, the platform also offers ongoing assessments, which not only serve to test new skills but also allow students to revisit existing skills to underpin mastery of the topic.
