We believe that educational apps should be fun and engaging. We understand that children need a certain amount of activity during the day that helps them to grow both physically and mentally. Additionally, it is important to engage children where they are and that is why leveraging technology to foster their learning is vital.

Here is how Erg Math Works:

First, a user can select the level of difficulty of math problems in the settings screen.

Next, they can choose the type of math problems for a particular game. Erg Math includes four levels of difficulty and provides random questions for all of the math operations - addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It is also possible to set the time limit for the game as well as turn on or off the sound effects and music.

The next step is to turn on the PM5 monitor to sync the Erg Math to the Concept2 rowing machine. Once this is established, the games can begin!

The game has a simple mechanic:

A math problem will appear at the top of the screen.

Five possible answers will generate with one answer being the correct answer. In order to solve the problem you must move the robot to the location of the correct answer,.

Touch the screen at the place where the correct answer is located.

Now row on the Concept2 rowing machine The faster the rowing the faster the robot moves and the more points are scored when the robot touches the correct answer.

The game continues in this manner until the time has elapsed.
