Hi all,
In last week’s post, we talked about our ideas briefly. This week, we conducted a playtest at Twin Rivers with our draft prototype.
As the above picture shows, it is a prototype of the number-line I mentioned in last blog. With the notches on the line, students are supposed to pick a fraction between 0 and 1. In this way, students are expected to reinforce what they have learned in class.
In terms of the selecting and choosing game, we used the green circles for test this time. They will divide into 2 to 4 parts evenly, and students then can understand the concept of fraction in an engaging way – fractions are coming from a whole circle.
To make it more convenient for teachers to test on their own pc, we have also created a “click version” so that teachers can use mouse and keyboard playing on their own computer. In this way, they can experience it more and provide more advice.
