ExamGiant: The Future of Educational Testing, Interactive Assessments and Competitions

  I just created a new video showing two new world map geography games on ExamGiant. These games help students practice identifying countries in two different ways. In one game, students see a country name and then have to find and select that country on the map. In the other game, a country is selected on the map and the student has to choose the correct country name. One feature I especially like is that students are not stuck looking at only one part of the world. If the map is showing one region, such as South America, they can move the map to another area, like Asia, and keep exploring. They can also zoom in and zoom out, which makes it easier to work with countries of different sizes and locations. That makes the game more realistic and more useful, because learning world geography is not just about memorizing names. It is also about becoming comfortable with where countries are located and how they fit into the larger map of the world. In my video, I walk through both of the...

  I just created a new video showing the new US map practice games on ExamGiant. These games help students learn US states in an interactive way. Instead of only memorizing a list, students work directly with the shapes and names of the states. That makes the learning more visual, more active, and often more memorable. There are currently three map-based US state games: A mode where students see a picture of a US state and choose the correct name A mode where students see the name of a US state and choose the correct state on the map A flexible mode where students can choose whichever direction they want I think this is important because students should know the states, not just as words on a page, but as places on a map. That kind of geographic knowledge can help with school, travel, history, government, and general understanding of the country. In my video, I show how these games work and how students can practice identifying states in different ways. One thing I like about these...

  I just created a new video showing the current geography practice games on ExamGiant. Right now, the geography section includes two games: States and Capitals Countries and Capitals These are simple topics, but they are still very useful. Knowing states and capitals is important because it helps students build a stronger understanding of the United States. It can help with schoolwork, maps, history, government, travel, and general knowledge. Even for adults, knowing the states and their capitals is one of those skills that continues to be useful over time. Countries and capitals may not come up in daily life as often for everyone, but they are still a great way to build world knowledge. They can help students understand geography better, connect places to world events, and become more familiar with the wider world. That kind of knowledge can be helpful in school and also just makes a person more informed. In my video, I walk through both of these geography games and show how they...

  I just created a new video showing the current science practice game on ExamGiant: Chemical Names and Formulas. Right now, this is the first science game available in the practice section, and it focuses on an important chemistry skill: connecting chemical names with their correct formulas. This kind of practice can help students become more comfortable recognizing compounds, remembering scientific notation, and building a stronger foundation in chemistry. Chemistry often feels difficult at first because students are learning a new language of symbols, names, and patterns. A game like this can make that process more approachable by turning repeated practice into something quicker and more interactive. In my video, I walk through the Chemical Names and Formulas game and show how it works inside ExamGiant. One thing I like about this type of practice is that it helps students develop familiarity through repetition. The more often students see chemical names and formulas together, t...

I just created a new video showing two more English practice games on ExamGiant: Spelling and Hangman. These games are designed to help students build vocabulary, improve spelling, and stay engaged while practicing important language skills. The Spelling game includes words from Grade 1 all the way through Grade 10. It also includes National Spelling Bee words, and hundreds of thousands of additional words that are not yet assigned to a grade level. One feature I am especially excited about is that students and parents can help improve the system over time. If a word seems like it belongs in a different grade, they can click and tell me what grade level it should be in. Another helpful feature is pronunciation support. If the computer voice does not sound right for a word, students or parents can click and let me know, and I can replace it with a human voice. That means the game is not just a fixed system. It can keep getting better with feedback. At the end of each spelling word, stud...

  I just added a new set of reading comprehension games to ExamGiant, they are based on the Harry Potter series. These new games give students a fun way to practice reading and comprehension skills using material connected to all seven Harry Potter books. In the current setup, there is one game that includes all seven books together, plus separate games for each individual book. That means students can practice with: Harry Potter All 7 Books Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Reading comprehension is one of the most important academic skills a student can build. It is not just about reading words on a page. It is about understanding ideas, following details, making connections, and thinking carefully about what was read. That is one reason I am exc...

  I just finished another ExamGiant video, and this one shows two more English practice modes: Parts of Speech and Hypernyms. As I was making the video, I shared something personal. When I was in high school, I did not think English was very important. At the time, I thought I would probably become either a math teacher, a professor, or a computer programmer, so I focused much more on math and did not take English as seriously as I should have. Looking back, that was a mistake. English is useful for just about everyone. If you become a boss, you need to be able to write clearly to your employees. If you work for someone else, you need to be able to communicate well with your boss. No matter what path you take in life, strong English skills can help you explain your ideas, understand other people, and present yourself more professionally. That is one reason I think English practice matters so much. In this new video, I show two useful areas of study: Parts of Speech Hypernyms Parts ...
