Chimple

Chimple is a finalist in the Global Learning XPRIZE which challenges teams from around the world to develop open-source, scalable software that will enable children in developing countries to teach themselves basic reading, writing and arithmetic within 15 months.
Chimple is a gamified, personalized and adaptive learning system which guides a child from absolutely no knowledge of the alphabet to a stage where the child can read to learn and perform basic arithmetic. Using low cost mobile devices, intelligent software and gamified learning, we believe the child can learn by themselves, either in a group (such as a classroom) or alone (at home), either under the direction of a teacher, parent, elder sibling or by themselves.
