Critter Corral for Math Understanding

Stanford Research Associate Kristen Blair was the leader of a team that developed the early learning app, Critter Corral. What makes Critter Corral special is that it is designed to help students understand math. Using this app, children aren’t just counting; they are connecting ideas about quantity and developing a basis for math learning in the future. The numbers in Critter Corral are presented in different ways, and children learn to “fix” answers that aren’t exactly right. In addition to being a great game for young students, Critter Corral is helping Stanford researchers learn more about how children solve problems.
