A Gamified Online System to Aid in Math Lessons of Junior and Middle High Students

This paper describes the project of an online platform to aid Brazilian students, of junior and middle high, in Math lessons and also training for Olimpíada Brasileira de Matemáticadas Escolas Públicas (OBMEP). The system allows the learners to solve random generated problems divided in three main themes, that are also covered by OBMEP, which are: Arithmetic, Geometry and Combinatorial. It is also programmed to give points and achievements according to the student progress. The system aims to make the students solve a certain number of problems in order to understand the algorithms and logic behind them. Those problems were chosen and classified with the aid of math teachers. This selection process consists in analyzing certain properties, which are described below. This system is also implemented with gamification concepts to engage students in the problem-solving activities.
