EduGrit

EduGrit is a platform designed to help students, particularly girls, build confidence and proficiency in mathematics. Inspired by the news highlighting the widening gender gap in math achievement and the challenges in early childhood education quality, EduGrit offers a gamified, adaptive learning experience that focuses on building foundational math skills in an engaging and supportive environment. The platform uses AI to identify individual learning gaps and provides personalized feedback and encouragement, addressing concerns about confidence and stereotype threat. It also incorporates elements of “productive struggle” by presenting challenges that are not overly frustrating but encourage critical thinking and problem-solving, mirroring the successful strategies seen in gifted and talented program reforms.
