MTG: Math Team Games

项目摘要 这项第二阶段研究和开发工作的总体目标是将新软件商业化 名为数学团队游戏(MTG)的产品。MTG正在开发中，以实现协作 移动平板电脑和触摸屏设备上的数学游戏正在迅速崛起 一对一(1：1)电子学习环境。在电子学习中，1：1指的是教师和学生使用 在传统教室或虚拟教室中使用联网的移动设备 他们不在的地方(远程学习)。在本提案中，术语“平板电脑”指的是任何具有 触摸屏，用户使用触控笔或指尖直接在屏幕上书写。流畅的目标是打造MTG 使用最近获得专利的新功能，专门为扩大其获奖产品的用途而设计， FluidMath，目前正在传统教室中使用。流动性公司最近获得了专利，目前正在申请专利 技术将联网平板电脑的图形用户界面转变为通用的工作页面(虚拟白板)，在该页面上 学生可以使用手写的数学符号进行协作，玩数学游戏。教师监督学生 连接到网络的教师平板电脑上的性能。与任何其他游戏应用程序不同，MTG 理解数学输入，使参与者能够输入和协作修改手写数学记数法 和/或其公共工作页面上的手绘草图。 目前，还没有可以在联网平板电脑上玩的团队游戏，这些平板电脑提供了一种智能 用于手写数学输入的共享工作空间。MTG解决了这个问题，并优化了有意义的 教育工作者正在进行的平板电脑投资，用于1：1的电子学习环境。MTG 提供首创的协作功能，可在通用智能工作空间上使用 参与者可以使用手写数学符号交互协作玩游戏，其中教师 可以教授、观察和评估学生的协作解决问题(CPS)技能。

Project Summary The overall objective of this Phase II research and development work is to commercialize of a new software product called MATH TEAM GAMES (MTG). MTG is being developed to enable the playing of collaborative math games on mobile tablet and touchscreen devices by students of high school algebra in rapidly emerging one-to-one (1:1) e-learning environments. In e-learning, 1:1 refers to both teachers and students using networked mobile devices in either a traditional classroom where they are co-located or in a virtual classroom where they are not (distance learning). In this proposal, the term “tablet” refers to any device with a touchscreen where users write directly on the screen with a stylus or fingertip. Fluidity’s goal is to build MTG using recently patented novel features designed specifically to broaden the use of their award winning product, FluidMath, currently being used in traditional classrooms. Fluidity’s recently patented and patent pending technology transforms the GUIs of networked tablets into a common work page (a virtual whiteboard) on which students can collaborate using handwritten math notation to play math games. Teachers monitor student performance on a teacher’s tablet connected in the network. Unlike any other game application, MTG understands math input and enables participants to enter and collaboratively modify handwritten math notation and/or hand drawn sketches on its common work page. Currently, there are no team games which can be played on networked tablets that provide an intelligent shared workspace for handwritten math input. MTG solves this problem and optimizes the significant investment in tablet computers that is being made by educators for use in 1:1 e-learning environments. MTG provides first-of-a-kind collaboration functionalities for use on a common intelligent workspace upon which participants can interactively collaborate playing games using handwritten math notation and wherein teachers can teach, observe, and evaluate their students’ collaborative problem solving (CPS) skills.
