Updated at June 5th, 2026
Mathseeds uses a mix of extrinsic and intrinsic motivators, including:
- Certificates: awarded once students/pupils have attained a certain number of points.
- Interactive activities are designed to engage students from the moment they enter the program.
- Students/Pupils earn points (golden acorns) as they progress through the lessons and activities. They can use these to purchase items in the Mathseeds shop to add to their Treehouse.
- Visible progress tracking: students/pupils can see their development as they advance through Mathseeds, encouraging them to take ownership of their learning.
- Students/Pupils can also unlock additional educational games.
