This geography program, designed by a former Lead Developer at MIT's Center for Educational Computing Initiatives, provides an engaging introduction suited for children aged 3 to 6. Narrated by a child's voice, Earth's Continents covers continent names through an interactive introduction, complemented by quizzes, puzzles, and labeling activities.

Content includes:

  • Active Intro - Touch any continent to hear its name.
  • Passive Intro - An animated presentation introduces each continent; users may choose between narration or song.
  • Quiz - "Ask Me" prompts children to identify continents; options include repeating questions or revealing answers upon touch.
  • Puzzle - Dragging pieces to reconstruct the map enhances spatial understanding.
  • Labeling - Pins can be freely moved to label continents accurately.

Features:

  • Self-Correcting Quiz - Feedback appears when answered correctly; audio reinforces learning; no penalties apply for incorrect responses.
  • User-Controlled Manipulatives - Pins and puzzle pieces move freely on the screen to encourage exploration.
  • Variety in Challenge - Questions, labels, and puzzle arrangements vary with each session to maintain engagement.
  • Puzzle Mechanics - Puzzle pieces scatter at edges; a "Toss" button randomly redistributes them for a new challenge.
  • Label Assistance - The "Pass" button allows skipping a label; "Control Map" highlights answers with a lightbulb icon while dimming others.

Learning Approach:

  • The difficulty escalates progressively across activities.
  • Children navigate activities independently, with no locking mechanisms limiting progress.
  • Touch buttons within activities restarts exercises to reinforce understanding.
  • The design excludes disruptive sounds or visual effects, emphasizing focused learning.

TenSun emphasizes learner autonomy by allowing children to adjust challenge levels and explore topics at their own pace. There are no penalties for incorrect answers—the system simply reinforces correct responses, supporting self-correcting learning processes. This methodology enables children to work independently, collaboratively in small groups, or under supervision in classroom or home environments.

Online Maps and Labels:

Access additional printable materials for coloring, tracing, and labeling activities via the "Classroom Printouts" button on the app's home screen.

Educational Note:

The color schemes used in iWorldGeography correspond with materials from the American Montessori Society. The series integrates self-directed, self-correcting activities aligned with Montessori curricula used in Children's House and Lower Elementary classrooms. The design incorporates thoughtful concept presentation and visual elements aimed at complementing existing classroom resources. This series draws inspiration from three years of observations at Lexington (MA) Montessori School's Children's House classrooms, where the desktop-based version, MyWorld by TenSun, has been employed since 2004.
