Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Our company provides abacus mental math training for young children through multi-sensory (kinestatic, auditory and visual) training. We are researching and developing an enhanced training method by adding musical sound to the abacus training. Our goal is to shift the perspective of numercy in toddlers, ages 3 and up, and to help students with special needs to learn foundational mental math skills.


We would like to work with students who are in Early Children Education to help us co-develope/implement teaching and learning resources, co-constructing learning environments, play experiences, materials and/or environments using musical sounds to enhance our current abacus mental math curriculum.


Tasks include:

  • Gathering relevant course design and content information
  • Researching and reviewing our existing curriculum and lesson plans and making recommendations to add musical sounds to the training.
  • Assisting in designing the course and revising training material.
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

  • Understanding of our company’s training programs
  • Reviewing our training material and suggesting areas for improvement

Final deliverables should include

  • A syllabus and lesson plan for abacus and musical sound training course.
How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Our products and services
  • Our current training programs
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
About the company

Amidst COVID-19, a lot of opportunities for virtual education opened up. Our company has pivoted our in-person children mental mathematic-based training program into two delivery models: i. Virtual classroom with a live teacher, and ii. Hybrid model - in class with a Facilitator and a virtual teacher.

Our current students are ages 4 and up. We are currently developing a new training program for toddlers and students with special needs.

Our products include curriculums and lesson plans. The main service is delivered to students through a virtual or hybrid setting in schools. We also offer professional training to educators.
