College of Southern Idaho - Gamifying Math
It is designed to cover the basics of the course and help to explain in a real world how each type of math may be used by the student. It is based on the text book “Thinking Mathematically, 6th Edition” by Blitzer. The game is organized following the book. However a student should be able to use the “schoolhouse” and its information to guide them through the game.
