6 Ways learning will transform with STEPapp

6 Ways learning will transform with STEPapp
The education system has been ever-evolving. In the 19th century, elementary education involved teaching children some basic learning; the 20th century brought with it the need for education to be centred around scientific-realist education and social reconstruction. As the 21st century came in, the education system moved ahead and called for teaching students the skills they need to succeed in the modern world.
The progress that the education system has been making is impressive but there’s a challenge that it still needs to eradicate - engagement crisis. Teachers and parents are suggested to “make learning fun” to keep kids engaged but what is the best way to do it? This strife can be readily buttressed with the use of modern technology and educational apps. Educational apps such as STEPapp use the concept of gamification in education to fight the learner engagement crisis.
Scrutinizing the benefits of gamification for learning and retention is a tricky topic because it requires a delicate balance of science and art. To build something that is both entertaining and educational is not a cakewalk. Let’s see how STEPapp fares:

1. Personalized, Gamified and Adaptive Learning: A smartly-structured game serves up the information, identifies comprehension and difficulties, and teaches students problem-solving skills. STEPapp lists highly engaging content that ensures the child’s learning process is interactive and effective. It can automatically adapt to the requirements of children with different learning pace.
2. Mapped to board and school curriculum: The pre-eminence for creating an effective education-based game should be on its learning dimensions first, and entertainment value second. Working on this principle, STEPapp Concepts is mapped to the curriculum of leading school boards and gives students conceptual clarity in Mathematics and Science. Mapped to their school boards, this goes hand in hand with school education. STEPapp Concepts is currently available for CBSE, and ICSE boards.
3. Content created by experts: Learning resources are only as good as the educators who put them to use. The fact that it has been created by a team of 400+ IITians and Doctors makes STEPapp a promising venture.
4. Detailed Progress Report: Each student’s progress is archived and communicated to the parents and teachers, along with the detailed reports of each chapter instantly via SMS or email.
5. Rewards and Scholarships: A major advantage of gamification is that it can increase engagement and spark motivation. To ensure this, STEPapp Scholarships is a chance for students to empower themselves and secure their futures. With a scholarship pool of ₹50 crores, felicitation in a televised event by Bollywood legend Mr. Amitabh Bachchan, mentorship by leading minds in Mathematics and Science, and a lucid testing format STEPapp Scholarships is a must give for students of grades 5th to 11th!

6. Mentorship and Guidance: Experts will mentor winners for continued educational success.
Looking at all these features illustrates that combining students’ short attention spans with an obvious reliance on technology and personal devices, the argument for gamification as a constructive learning technique is one worth paying attention to.
