BASE: A Fun Football-Based Learning App for Schools
BASE is a teacher's invaluable classroom companion, injecting dynamic energy into learning. It's designed to make learning fun, allowing children to master the same curriculum content through engaging gameplay. The app's initial rollout features a three-season structure, mirroring a sporting tournament. Each season offers four competitive levels: Regional, National, Continental, and World, plus a Pre-Season. These "tournaments" contain varying numbers and difficulty levels of questions, cleverly disguised as "matches." To maintain engagement, the app incorporates gamification elements such as coins, points, and trophies.
Developed collaboratively by the Vini.Jr Institute and the faculty of Paulo Reglus Neves Freire Municipal School, BASE's educational technology initially targets elementary school students (grades 1-5), ages 6-10. Leveraging the appeal of sports and the convenience of technology, the app ensures all questions align with the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) standards.
