5 Core Principles of GamerMath™

Culturally Responsive Teaching means being aware of the cultural backgrounds and experiences of your students and incorporating relevant examples and contexts into your math lessons.

Why it works:

  • Increases engagement; students love video games
  • Validates students’ intrinsic interests; elevates participation in their studies
  • Fosters positive student/teacher relationships

Gamer Math focuses on developing students' conceptual understanding of mathematics rather than just teaching procedural skills. Helping students understand why mathematical procedures work leads to better long-term retention.

Why it works:

  • Students analyze problems, make connections, and solve challenges rather than rely on rote memorization
  • Learners understand the “why” behind the math problems
  • Concepts that are more deeply understood are more likely to be retained for long periods of time

GamerMath uses visual aids, diagrams, and graphs to illustrate mathematical concepts. Visual representations can make abstract ideas more concrete and accessible.

Why it works:

  • Gaming visuals make math more exciting and enjoyable
  • Makes math ideas and concepts concrete for learners; they can “see” the math
  • Research has proven that visual representations improve long-term retention

GamerMath breaks down complex concepts into smaller, more manageable steps. Our curriculum gradually increases the complexity of problems as students gain confidence and competence.

Why it works:

  • Presents information in digestible chunks; breaks down complex math concepts into smaller, manageable steps
  • Incorporates problem-solving activities that gradually increase in complexity
  • Allows teachers to identify specific areas of struggle and provide additional guidance or resources to address those challenges

Show how mathematics is relevant to everyday life and real-world situations. Connecting math to practical applications helps students see its value.
