Revision that plays like a game
Topics now come with a game when one suits them, made from what the teacher has actually set: put places on a map, build a timeline one event at a time, or build atoms from protons, neutrons and electrons. Combos, sounds and a buzz when you get it right, and a fact to remember with every move.
They sit at the top of a topic's Learn tab, and end the daily bite when one of its topics has a game. Try them here:
More kinds of game are on the way, including a particle model you can heat and cool: play the prototype.
A bolder look
Richer colours, bigger type and more movement across the whole app, so it feels more like a game you want to open and less like homework. Answers pop green or shake red, runs of right answers build a combo, and finishing today's bite gets confetti. The same bright violet and lime, turned up.
A voice for Offset
Lessons read aloud in a natural voice, for children who take things in better by listening. Upbeat when they get something right, calm and clear when it's explaining. We're auditioning voices now, and children may get to choose from a few.
Feel it on iPhone
A little tap you can feel when you get an answer right. It already works on Android phones, and iPhones are next.
Less reliance on the computer
Today, new homework comes in through the Offset extension whenever the computer is on with Chrome open. We're looking at ways for it to keep coming in even when the computer is off, and at fewer steps to set up.
