Good selection of comments re the recent NYT piece by @barbaraoakley. My own feeling is similar to @jamestanton’shttps://twitter.com/i/moments/1027325088528572416 …
I'm glad it's working for you, and I'll certainly try it out. But buzzwords like "gamification" and "AI" make me deeply uneasy. What really matters is the quality of the practice prompts -- that, and their large-scale coherence. Who wrote them? A thoughtful mathematician, I hope.

You are totally right about those buzzwords. There have been so many smoke sellers using them that it feels bad to use them, but some gamification, a little bit, can work and I thank the AI for allowing my children to advance at their own pace. Sometimes ahead of their classroom.

Yes, unfortunately a lot of other programs use these words very loosely. Smartick is very different from the rest. We would love to offer you a 1 month trial
@MathPrinceps so you can get a better scope of the program! Of course, we welcome any and all feedback.
