Abstract :
Many students find mathematics difficult and do not like studying mathematics. Some researchers suggest that computer games can be highly effective in increasing children´s learning and enjoyment of mathematics. In this paper, we described a bingo-like system for mathematics skill building. The main aim of the game is to increase the level of motivation and engagement of students during skill building. The functions and features of the system are presented in the paper and a preliminary study at an elementary school is also outlined and discussed.
