I'm interested in anything that has the potential to improve education, especially if it can do it at scale.
I'm not involved with the Oppia foundation, but I know Sean from my time at Google.
I started creating an exploration about accounting at https://www.oppia.org/explore/pepGU0qbyoUm https://www.oppia.org/explore/pepGU0qbyoUm but it's not complete and I haven't improved it since I created it.
- sitkack 5y agoFollowing through your oppia quiz, it reminds me of interactive fiction. I could see one being used for the other here. http://inform7.com/ http://inform7.com/ https://blogs.bl.uk/english-and-drama/2020/04/writing-tools-for-interactive-fiction-.html https://blogs.bl.uk/english-and-drama/2020/04/writing-tools-...
- rahimnathwani 5y agoIn the exploration I linked, the only types of interaction offered to the learner were either ok/proceed, or 'answer this textual multiple choice question'. This may make it seem like Oppia doesn't do much more than software for interactive fiction. BUT Oppia has lots of other interaction types: https://github.com/oppia/oppia/tree/develop/extensions/interactions https://github.com/oppia/oppia/tree/develop/extensions/inter... For example, you can input music notes: https://github.com/oppia/oppia/issues/4842 https://github.com/oppia/oppia/issues/4842 Or ask the learner to enter a fraction, or to sort some objects.
- sitkack 5y agoThere are more similarity between things like Oppia and interactive fiction, I don't see them at odds. It is is wonderful that Oppia has a musical notation interface. If you zoom out far enough, everything could be considered a quiz. This will all be on the test.
