The app was developed specifically to help our children learn about world geography. We also wanted to capture "low-stakes" assessment quiz reports to help us baseline their knowledge for additional teaching. Through daily and weekly assessment we can then gauge their improvement and keep a record of their progress via quiz reports."EdScout empowers the student to scout out answers on a map through exploration."To answer a question: The child "scouts" out the region across the map and taps on the region itself versus pick an answer from a pick list or a limited set of multiple-choice answers. The app presents an interactive real-world picture where context to oceans and continents are maintained and a student must pick from many possible regions. For example we wanted to simulate teaching from a wall map or book... where a teacher asks students to find a country or state by pointing at the map... In EdScout the tapping on the map triggers a pop-up label and educational content.Geographic context is maintained.EdScout adds multi-dimensional learning to assessment by:Exploring through panning and zooming so it becomes more than just a quiz and more a "hunt" for the answer...Answering questions through tapping on a 2-dimensional image versus a set of multiple choice answersProviding supplementary educational material for learning, to improve cognitive reading skills, whether the child has answered incorrectly or correctlyTyping and Searching for a region which will automatically zoom in and highlight the region, building basic typing skills, plus the student can then zoom-out to understand the neighboring regions, continent, etc..-----------------------------------------------No Ads.No Social Networking links.Supplementary wiki information is loaded and presented for educational purposes.
