Yesterday we launched InQuizitor Solo - downloadable, affordable buy-online licences for InQuizitor to use at home.
Why?
Cos parents face exactly the same challenges as schools - how do you compete with all the distractions your kids would rather invest their time and energy in? You want them to study and revise at home, they want to be on youtube or bebo or facebook, or texting and instant messaging.
Traditional study techniques have a tough job facing up to that kind of competition.
InQuizitor Solo helps make homework fun, gives parents help with exam revision and provides software for studying at home that children will actually want to use.
It really is the best of both worlds:
Real games design means the kids see it as non-condescending, credible gameplay. They will choose to do this instead of playing Xbox or Playstation games - or trying to find clandestine online games when they should be doing something else.
Tried and tested methodology means the teaching and memory techniques used are rock solid. In some contexts they might be considered old-fashioned, but when presented in InQuizitor's fast-moving game-playing, high-score challenging, beat-your-previous-best world ... it's a powerful combination.
InQuizitor's strength lies in helping students build up a strong body of knowledge in any subject:
Facts
Figures
Definitions
Places
Dates
Names
Acronyms
Vocabulary
... not only to help study for exams where that information is essential, but also to provide a platform of knowledge that opens up the rest of the curriculum.
InQuizitor Solo provides 3 key elements to parents trying to help their children study at home:
InQuizitor Player. The gaming environment that plays the Quizzes.
InQuizitor Editor. The tool to help parents modify or create content that is designed specifically to help their children and their needs.
Curriculum Content. Tons of paid and free content for use at home, typically created by teachers, covering topics and subtopics from A-Level Biology to KS2 Maths.
So all you parents who need to find a way to get your children studying at home for exams - or just to help them get re-enthused about the whole business of acquiring knowledge - InQuizitor Solo could just be the key:
Download the free trial.
Find free curriculum content for your kids' subjects/levels - or use the Editor to create your own.
See how it works in practice - enthusiasm for schoolwork, children choosing to do study and revision at home, enjoying challenge, making study fun. Can't be bad can it?
