Our goal is to increase education to children/students, while decreasing video games / PC games / online games and website visits / cell phone activity usage. A behavior modification approach to the learning experience, for children between the ages of five and eighteen. Parents and educators will now have a tool that encourages learning and creative problem solving by motivating their children to earn game / play time / phone time. Parents and educators will also have a way to control their child’s/students obsession. : We are able to now limit the amount of time played with video games / PC games / online activities, installing a propriety education portal (similar to linking to Wiki portal) and/or linking to the school systems curriculum, which advances game play / online time / phone time with successful completion of correctly answered questions, and learning modules, changing content each day and time allotted for continued game play. The game or online use will be blocked, using the patented software/hardware, until successful completion of tasks. We are not only providing a service, but have created several win-win scenarios. The child/student attention is now divided between leisure activity and learning transferable marketable skills through knowledge building by answering questions requiring creative problem solving while blocking online use/pc and game consoles. Children or students now have double the benefit since the education portals will shape behavior to help them reach both their short term goals through earning game time and long terms goals of employment or being productive members of society. If you’re interested in these tools we developed, please email us. We would love to work with a few schools at this time while in beta phase of developement or give us your thoughts on the project. Thank you for your time.
