Go on a Math Mission
Tabula Digita has released a new version of the educational video game Math Evolver: Virus Origin, which teaches pre-algebra skills. This engaging math program has an ESRB Rating of E10+ (Everyone 10+) for mild fantasy violence and is suitable for children in grades 6–9. The game captivates students with exciting visuals and first-person action adventures while incorporating key algebraic concepts. The contemporary simulation format features high-end 3-D graphics, sound, animation and storylines comparable to those found in most popular video games. But the math game offers far more than action-packed entertainment: the five missions embed lessons aligned with the standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) and adhere to learning research in the areas of math and gaming.
