New Math Storyline "Doody Duty"
We have launched our first math storyline! With funding from NSF's VITAL Prize , we have created the new storyline "Doody Duty", which teaches students about volume and surface area of rectangular prisms.
This storyline is available from Dr. Joel Zaleski in the Cryo-Bay. And it includes...
  • Spatial relationships, including shapes and dimension
  • Using models and physical objects to understand concepts (we've made a brand-new mechanic that allows students to fill containers in-world, which will help to determine volume!)
  • Using formulae to streamline calculations
Here's a walkthrough of the storyline:
This storyline is currently listed under the "General" module. We will have a module particularly for Math once we have more content.
