Super Practica is a game and a scientific research program to optimize the reproduction of practical knowledge. We begin with arithmetic and will take it as far as we can from there.
To imagine what it might look like when complete, imagine playing a game. Just by playing it, you become skilled at it, improving at a rapid pace. It is not difficult or frustrating. Anyone can play it through to the end. When you reach the end, you can expertly apply outside the game what you have learned in the game. Then you see next to the topic you just learned many more topics you can learn the same way.
This is not only possible, but is the optimal method of learning practical knowledge, including mathematics.
In order for this game to exist, it requires scientific research, design optimization, and game development. Much work to this end has already been done, but there is still much more work to do.
You can play an early demo of Super Practica on the Play Page.
Read the Blueprint for an outline of its philosophy, theory, and design.
Super Practica is free and open-source software. To make it truly optimal, we must guarantee the freedom of its players from abuses typical in game development.
The Contribute Page explains how you can help improve Super Practica and how things get done. You can drop by the Zulip Chat if you have any questions.
