In Cyberchase Fractions Quest, students learn about fractions while playing fun mini-games based on the awesome world of PBS's Cyberchase.
Benefits:
Narrative-Driven Learning: All fractions learning occurs in an engaging problem-solving mode. Players face fun, interesting, and exciting tasks that help to achieve goals within the story.
Versatile Contexts: Players learn about fractions as equal parts in the contexts of area/region (shapes), set (groups of objects), and on a number line.
Individualized Tutorials: To help facilitate player independence, each game section begins with a tutorial practice problem that explains the content and mechanics of that section as players solve it.
Supportive Scaffolding: As players solve problems, they are automatically supplied leveled prompts, clues, and specific helpful hints to support their learning as needed. Different levels of play are available for almost all of the game sections, and levels automatically adjust based on player performance throughout the game.
Assessment and Review: Assessment and cumulative review are embedded in the game in the problem sets that players encounter, the dedicated assessment pieces that players complete as they move from site to site, and in the final summary assessment at game end.
