Mathematical Connections and Description of the Game
In this game, students are expected to compare two exponential numbers. They have already known to calculate exponential numbers as rational numbers. Here, they are tested about properties of exponential numbers also. For example, what is the result if the exponent is less than or equal to zero.
The game give these exponential numbers randomly if you click on ‘New Game’ button. Also students continue to play the game as long as they want. They can make your comparison by the given slider. The slider has 3 options and the midpoint of the slider states equality of the numbers. They get feedback immediately about their comparison by clicking on ‘Check Your Answer’ button. Also, the game gives a chance to correct their mistakes about comparison by reacting as ‘Try Again’.
