While the backend analytics provide you with powerful insights, the real magic of Goblins happens on the student's screen. Students love using Goblins because it feels less like a typical math program and more like a natural conversation with a helpful tutor. Here’s a look at the core experience, our pedagogical approach, and how your students can engage with Goblins beyond their assigned work.

The Core Experience

Natural & Intuitive Interaction

Goblins lets students speak or draw their work directly on the screen. This is how they’re used to doing math—on a whiteboard or with paper and pencil. Because the interface feels so natural, students are more willing to show their raw thinking, stumbles and all. This authentic work gives us the data we need to deeply understand and empathize with their learning process.

Focusing on the Conceptual

Our philosophy is centered on building deep, lasting understanding. For that reason:

• Goblins will never give the student the answer.
• Instead of just providing step-by-step procedures, Goblins focuses on strengthening the underlying conceptual foundation for each skill.

Intelligent, Empathetic Feedback

When a student struggles, Goblins adapts its approach:

• For minor errors, it gives immediate, real-time feedback to guide them back on track.
• For more significant struggles, instead of giving heavier-handed hints, the AI may take the student on a "custom lesson plan"—a short, focused micro-lesson, sometimes using analogous numbers, to remediate a specific skill gap before returning to the original problem.
• If a student isn’t engaged or repeatedly says "I don't know," the AI will use gentle Socratic questioning to encourage them and goad them into trying a first step (and you’ll get alerted!.
