Each student is assigned a unique virtual world that allows them to use their own ideas and creativity while crafting their environment. For example, students are immersed in creating buildings, farm plots and corrals while adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions. The math is meaningful to the tasks they are doing. Work is done independently and/or collaboratively as students make sense of their ideas. They enthusiastically share their virtual worlds in class while explaining their thinking.

One thing that makes our game so different is that you play by talking. This is hard for people to imagine because the games they are accustomed to usually involve shooting zombies, cars that can jump, or blocks that disappear after changing colors. As we design this game and plan future additions, we have found that this conversation-based gameplay opens many, many possibilities. The types of adventures, the strategic mini-games, the storyline & side-plots, the depth & breadth of players’ social interactions… all of these aspects of our game have given us at WordUp Games plenty to work with.

This is a marvellous tool which I intend to start using myself. It doesn't do the work for the students like a grammar or spell-checker but it does push them to think about their writing at a more stylistic level.
