Fi was contacted by UR, the Swedish Educational Radio, to spearhead the creation of an online, interactive homework tool for kids aged 12-16 in core school subjects. The first project includes mathematics, and specifically geometry.
Features
The purpose of UR Smart is to increase knowledge and interest in school subjects among students by leveraging the unique possibilities of an interactive medium.
The website tells an interactive story where students travel in time and place, whereby students learn and practice geometry along the way. Each new location is introduced with a story consisting of voice, rich graphics, animation and interactivity.
The primary design goal was to create a clean, timeless and immersive experience which would educate students in a pedagogic, playful, and easy to use environment.
