MISSION:

is software business and
website, that gives parents a
new ways to engage in child's
education,
so they become committed
participants in the
process, and to raise and
educate kids in a friendly
optimistic environment.
PROBLEM:
This is the reality of our
lives:
working parents spend
most of their time on their
computers,
while their kids - on their.
Parents are spending less
time helping their
children
than their own parents
did. Parents have limited
understanding of child
development.
Parents are not aware what is
going on with their child at
school. Parents can not assess
if their children are lagging
behind in certain fields and
what help they need to
improve their academic
performance.
Monitoring of child’s cognitive development
EXISTING SOLUTIONS
Solution Advantages Disadvantages
School achievement
tests system Occurs regularly, does not
require special effort from
parents, and money
investments
• Not tuned to child’s individuality.
• Aims to assess learning of a specific material, rather
than general cognitive skills
• Always late: the information about the problems
comes to the parents later than these problems can be
prevented
Particular teacher,
counsellor
or psychologist
monitoringIndividual, professional
care and support.
• Requires a systematic investing of time and money
• Irritates the child
• Limited by particular specialis’ field of competence
Regular parental
control
and involvement
in child’s activity
Individual highly motivated
monitoring . Can be carried
out continuously.
• The lack of learning assessment skills in parents
•The lack of time spent with children
Use existing cognitive testing
products High-quality assessment of
general cognitive child’s skills
in a familiar and interesting
environment
• Not tuned to child’s individuality.
• Informs only about the end result, does not collect
information about cognitive process.
• Uses a limited set of tests, and therefore cannot
be used for dynamic testing
OUR
SOLUTION:
Build "common
information network"
of parents and
children.
Glance from inside
into
child's cognitive
activity.
Server collects data about the game , processes it and
creates the results in the form of recommendations to
parents: what to look for and how to help.
A parent being interested in children's education and
cognitive development, requests an
receives information.
A child plays in the
eLearning games
GENERAL
SCHEME:
Parents

how to best raise
their children.

customers:
The system stores
information about all your
child’s games, makes it
possible to specify individual
criteria, offers a dynamic
evaluation of the child
development for a certain
period of time.
Your system encourages
child cognitive
development?
WHY as2x2 ?
Yes, we created
games for the
development of various
aspects of cognitive
activity of the child.
How can I know if my
child's development is
on track ?
Just press the
button, and our system
will give you full
information.
Will this irritate my
child, that he is constantly
supervised?
The child will not even
know that you're doing it.
He's just playing in familiar
surroundings, and no one
is standing behind him.
I am not a teacher or
psychologist, even if I'm
monitoring the kid, I do
not understand that much
either.
Our data analysis is based
on the experience of highly
qualified educators and
teachers. It interprets the
results in simple
terms, which serve as a
clear guide to parents.
We are required to
monitor a variety of areas
in order not to miss
starting problem ?
We built wide set of
indicators draw attention
to a potentially
problematic area.
I'm not so much interested
in the final result of the
game. I want to focus on
the process of solving
problems. I want to be
aware of the child's
strengths and weaknesses
.
We also have little interest in
final result. We collect the
vast amount of data about
the important features of
problem-solving process for
every child, and then process
it.
If my child will often play a
game, he/she will just
remember the correct
answers and that’s all.
We do not have identical
tasks. The system produces
a tasks in random manner.
The system can also
determine if the child is not
interested in the game.
My child - is
special, He/she is not
developing at an expected
rate. I want the
assessment to account for
his/her unique
characteristics.
How much does it cost
and what time does it take
to continuously monitor
the child cognitive
development ?
We offer a subscription for a
long period. Subscriber could
get all the data he is
interested in during the lunch
break.
