Magbodo is an integrated solution to learning
that infuses a sense of gaming which offers fun, collaboration, competition and
promotes creativity that is geared towards improving students’ academic
performance. This product is open source that is, having no
geographical/school/ social status boundaries; it can be used by any student
anywhere provided they have a phone or device that can browse the internet.
The concept behind this product is to present
computer based test (CBT) for students seeking admission into higher
institutions in a gaming environment. Students’ takes test and compare their
result against other students and friends. Base on their performance they are
ranked on the platform. Their performance is directly proportional to the
results they will get when they take the actual exam since the past questions
from such exams, as well as mentally challenging exercises that improve their
cognitive abilities are incorporated into the “Game.”
With Magbodo, limitless learning is possible
which is tempered by user. Using the platform is absolutely ‘free’ and users have freedom to
unlimited questions per month. No monitoring of student performance by
parents/teachers/schools. Student monitors and seeks to improve their brain
power or academic performance as they compete for rewards such as ranking,
badges, trophies and to participate in academic championship at end of each
season.
It is design solely with gaming in mind so that
students “forget” they are learning when they interact with the product. The
less you study or understand your course of study the more your ranking drops
as you take exams and game on Magbodo. This will definitely force students to
take studies seriously if they don’t want to drop in ranking and look bad
before their friends.
Product will be officially available by January 2015
