About M Genius Wiskunde-learapplikaasje

M Genius is in mobile en desktop-applikaasje dy't wiskundige funksjes fisualisearret foar jonge learlingen. De interface hat fjouwer gebieten: Punt, Kromme, Weefsel en Resultaat. Brûkers selektearje in fergeliking út de kategoryen of fiere in fergeliking direkt yn. De foarm fan de kromme feroaret as de parameters X, Y, N en Z oanpast wurde, en it resultaat wurdt op it skerm toand. De parametryske foarmen kinne ek mei in 3D-printer yn ABS-materiaal produsearre wurde. M Genius feroaret abstrakte symboalen yn sichtbere foarmen om it learen fan wiskunde dúdliker en boeiender te meitsjen.

Unique Properties
This is a visualized mathematical function application, which using parametric method in application to make the boring math symbols to be interesting parametrical shapes. The properties are as follows.
1.Users can adjust mathematical parameters to understand mathematical functions.
2.Visualizing mathematical functions can increase your interest in learning.
3.Gamification fostered an interest in learning the logic of mathematical functions.
Dimensions & Packaging
The interface design is simple, modern, beautiful and high-tech, the interaction design is friendly and sustainability, and the results are amazing. It is suitable for the use needs of young people.

Production Technology
In the perspective of method, this design adopts the positive design method to think about how to improve students' pleasure in learning mathematics through the design thinking. The author selects the parametric method to visualize the abstract function.
In the perspective of technology, this design is an Internet app, which used Java and XML for programming, Adobe Illustrator for visual interface design, Figma for interaction design, and 3D printer for function visualization of ABS material etc.
This work realizes the interaction with students through the pad, computer and mobile phone.
Design Challenge
1. Build a parameterized interaction design guided by users' positive experience;
2. Built-in system construction, program operation vulnerabilities need to be constantly improved;
3. The user experience of the interface needs to be constantly optimized.
4. How much the final works improving the positive experience of users?
Research
Background: Learning mathematics is a big challenge for some young students all over the world. Methods:1. Based on the general parametric design process and the positive experience design, a parametric product design hypothesis model based on positive experience is proposed. 2. On the basis of the design method model, the design practice is developed. Result: A visualized mathematical function application has been designed. Impacts:We put out a new way for students, through the interaction and application of mathematical functions and images, the interest and efficiency of participants in learning mathematical knowledge can be improved.
Inspiration
Learning mathematics is a big challenge for some young students all over the world.
why?
1. Math symbols are boring! 2. Be confused by the logic!
Why not change students' cognition through design to make it easy for them to learn mathematics.
Project Duration
The project started in March 2020 in Shanghai and finished in December 2020 in Shanghai, and was exhibited in Shanghai in January 2021.
Operation Flow
1. This is an APP that can learn functions by adjusting function unknowns and controlling function image changes.
2. There are four areas of categories on the interface: Point, Curve, Weave, and Result.
3. Two approaches: (a) selecting the equation in the categories, (b) entering the equation by yourself.
4. The shapes of functional curve are changed via entering the parameters of X, Y, N, and Z in the equation. Then, the final shape will be shown on the screen.
5. After you enter or select the different parameters and equations, you will get amazing parametrized shapes, and then it can be printed by 3D printer.
