Sports Bytes Delivers Math and Science Sports Quizzes to Mobile Phones Worldwide
Washington, D.C. (PRWEB) May 29, 2008 -- Hot Lava Software, Inc. is collaborating with the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, Kansas City, MO, to use the most ubiquitous computing platform on the planet -- the mobile phone -- to deliver on-demand Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education that is accessible and captivating.
During the summer of 2008 Hot Lava Software will use mobile phone technology at major summer sports events -- soccer, baseball, basketball, swimming and cycling -- to engage more than 100,000 people worldwide with a Sports Bytes Competition. Sports Bytes are sports themed STEM educational modules -- quick quizzes -- delivered via mobile phones.
A spring 2008 Sports Bytes Pilot Project proved successful in reaching more than 16,000 users in over 114 countries. The ultimate goal with the summer 2008 Sports Bytes Competition is to demonstrate the potential for delivering STEM education to millions of people, via their mobile phones.
"Particularly relevant to math and science education is the love affair that many U.S. teens have with their mobile phones. This age bracket represents the pivotal turning point toward or away from math and science careers and thus mobile phones become a potentially significant intervention vector," says Merillea J. Mayo, Ph.D., director, Future of Learning Initiatives, for the Kauffman Foundation.
The Sports Bytes Competition will be live at select August D.C. United soccer games as well as the Kansas City T-Bones, Frederick Keys, Aberdeen Ironbirds, Bowie Baysox, Wilmington Blue Rocks and Delmarva Shorebirds baseball games, during July and August 2008. Those not attending a game can access the Sports Bytes content via www.hdwap.com/sport7 from a mobile phone web browser.
Users can access these STEM educational modules while attending summer sports events. When users correctly answer at least one Sports Bytes quiz item, they qualify for a chance to win a stadium prize pack. Prize packs can include Kajeet mobile phones, first throws at a minor league baseball game, team jerseys and baseball caps and other items related to each team.
In addition to these U.S. demonstrations of the program, global partners in Canada, Singapore, South Africa, Australia and the European Union will engage users worldwide to access the Sports Bytes modules via their mobile phone web browsers.
