Designing Digital Educational Games for children with focus on learning and engagement.
Interactive EducationGamified LearningEngaging Learning ToolsPlay-based LearningEdTech Innovation
This project explores the transformative potential of education technology by integrating gamification into traditional pedagogy. In response to the rise of digital learning tools, particularly post-pandemic, the project aims to create engaging and interactive educational experiences. The core objectives are to gamify traditional worksheets into a Learning Journey, introduce surprise elements into game mechanics to break monotony, and incorporate real-life activities into digital games for enhanced engagement. Extensive research was conducted on educational methodologies, UX/UI design, and game mechanics, leading to a suite of educational games tailored to various age groups and subjects. Collaborations with educators, psychologists, and designers ensured the games were both fun and educational. Usability testing and analytics were used to refine the games, with results showing high engagement and positive user feedback. This project contributes to the ongoing evolution of edtech, offering innovative, interactive learning experiences that bridge the gap between education and entertainment.
