Maximus 2020 for PC

Maximus is a motivational system for schools and educational organizations aimed at motivating students. Its goal is to create an ideal environment for education thanks to various modern elements such as gamification.

The proposal of the project "Maximizing learners’ motivation, engagement and learning through a gamification" (MAXIMUS) is aimed at the design, development and testing of a digital, customizable, and interactive motivational system that will enable students to engage in learning, self-development and at the same time mastery of critical/deep thinking and creative expressions. The system will include game elements that inspire game reactions and student engagement. MAXIMUS gathers seven regular partners and one associate partner (Mikroregión 11+) from four different EU countries: Slovakia, Spain, Greece, and Portugal. The project consortium consists of a carefully selected mix of non-profit organisations, two private schools, one public school, an initial VET provider and a university.

Objectives:
The main goals of the project are related to maximizing student motivation, engagement and learning through a gamified environment. In our project, we focus on the design, development and testing of a digital, flexible and interactive motivational system in the form of a digital platform for collaboration, complete with a mobile application and electronic instructions for using the system for teachers and students.

Specific goals are also planned:
• increase the motivation and active involvement of the student and simultaneously increase critical

• Create an open and accessible environment for the school community
• Help teachers / students / set and meet SMART (achievable) goals in the course
