Educational Videogame Company Continues Growth

February 3, 2010

Tabula Digital, makers of educational videogames for K-12 schools, has announced that its software has been named as a recommended resource for the Dallas Independent School District.

Tabula’s DimensionM software is now an approved instructional material for the district’s 226 schools and 160,000 students. DimensionM has content that adheres to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and promises to engage students by offering “a series of first-person action adventure missions that incorporate three-dimensional graphics, sound, animation and storylines comparable to those in popular video games.”

Tabula Digital CEO Ntiedo Etuk was obviously happy about the news, stating:

Recent research shows that for many students, the challenges of learning math and algebra can be overcome simply by presenting it in a way they not only understand but appreciate – that is, through engaging, immersive educational video games.

Tabula also announced that it has recently conducted implementations of its software in the Texas school districts of Garland, Fort Worth and Austin.

This is awesome. All through high school I had problems w/math & this will definitely help the school system that I came from.
