Chosen Idea: Educational Mathemathics app

The app idea I have decided to pursue is the maths learning app. I am looking to create a simple educational system directed at children anywhere from ages 7-12, with the potential for expansion. The process will be divided into lessons, which will give a demonstration or explanation of what will be required, followed by the user actively doing some equations. To entice the user to complete the lessons and encourage them to continue, a reward system will need to be in place.

The reward system will be similar to that found in many games. The user upon first using the app will be at the bottom of a skill tree, comprised of all the lessons that can be done. Lessons will need to be completed in a sequence to unlock further lessons, or unlocked with a points system. To be awarded after the completion of a lesson or test.

This system of learning in a simplified gaming setting has proven to be very popular and effective with apps like duolingo.
