Matematika
We didn’t slap together another math quiz app. We built a complete learning ecosystem for 7–8 graders that combines killer animated lessons, real student submissions, and teacher-grade feedback tools — all without dumbing anything down
Math isn’t boring when it’s done right. We consulted teachers, scripted and produced 56 short animated films, then engineered a custom WordPress-powered platform where kids watch, solve, upload solutions — and teachers actually grade them with canvas remarks
The Real Story
This was a massive education project for Lithuanian 7–8 grade students: make math engaging without turning it into gamified candy. We started from scratch — worked directly with teachers to compile curriculum-aligned topics, wrote scripts, designed characters, directed animation, voiced over, added sound effects, edited 56 focused animated videos (one per key topic).
Then built the platform: students watch the video, get tasks, solve them (on paper or digitally), upload photos/scans of their work. Teachers log in, see class progress at a glance, open individual submissions, draw/write remarks directly on the uploaded image with canvas tools, score it, leave feedback — everything tracked and organized. No off-the-shelf LMS could handle this depth of interaction. We coded it custom on WordPress for intuitive CMS updates while keeping the heavy functionality in pure PHP.
What We Delivered
- 56 original animated educational videos: full production cycle (screenwriting, character design, animation, voice-over, sound design, editing) — short, clear, teacher-approved explanations
- Custom WordPress platform with unique UI/UX: clean, kid-friendly design that doesn’t feel childish
- Student flow: topic selection → watch animated lesson → view tasks → upload solution images → see feedback/grades
- Teacher dashboard: class overview, student progress tracking, individual submission review, canvas-based drawing/writing tools for marking directly on uploaded images, scoring, text remarks, feedback history
- Custom PHP core for heavy lifting: user roles (student, teacher, admin), massive file uploads (solution images), data management, progress tracking
- JavaScript canvas integration for real-time teacher annotations on student work
- Intuitive CMS layer via WordPress: easy content updates (new tasks, video embeds, text explanations) without touching code
- Secure, scalable handling of user accounts, submissions, and feedback streams
No bloated plugins pretending to be an LMS. Just purpose-built code that respects both kids’ attention and teachers’ sanity.
The Punk Part
While most edtech is either dry corporate portals or flashy apps full of distractions, we built something honest: real math learning with real teacher involvement, no algorithmic babysitting. Kids get animated clarity instead of walls of text. Teachers get tools that let them actually teach — mark up work like on paper, but digital and trackable. We didn’t follow trends. We consulted the people who know math education and built exactly what they needed — no compromises, no excuses.
Tech (Straight, No Fluff)
- WordPress (as CMS shell + user management)
- Custom PHP for core functionality (submissions, progress, roles, data flow)
- JavaScript + HTML5
- Canvas for teacher annotation/markup tool
- Custom UI/UX design (responsive, intuitive for kids/teachers)
- File upload handling for high-volume student images
- Animated video production pipeline (56 shorts)
- Built for scale: many classes, frequent uploads, detailed tracking
Result
A platform that actually gets used in classrooms — kids stay engaged through clear animations, teachers save time on grading while giving meaningful feedback, progress is visible to everyone. No gamification crutches. No paywalls. Just effective math learning that bridges video explanation to real student work and teacher insight. Proof: when education tech needs to serve real teachers and real students, you don’t use templates — you engineer the whole damn thing from the ground up.
