The Reward-Based Learning System

Every child is unique in their capacity for effort for reward, so BRAINtastic allows you to vary the amount of work to be completed before they can play a Reward Game. You choose the activities and your kids choose a cool Reward Game!
- Gives your child maximum motivation to keep on learning!
- Humorous twists, constant feedback and corrections to keep students engaged and on-task
- Activity types include text input, missing answer, drag-and-drop, multiple choice, true or false and more!
- “Questions Only” mode allows kids to focus on the content without playing the Reward Games
Reward Games
- Because each child is different, each BRAINtastic! title features three or more unique Reward Games to motivate every child!
- Children can track their personal high scores, or match themselves against each other for the highest overall score.
- Progress within each Reward Game is cumulative, so children can build on their previous scores.
- Maximise motivation by accessing extra Reward Games as you install new BRAINtastic! titles.
