Australian ed-tech start-up Mathspace has landed an exclusive deal with the world’s largest global publisher Pearson, in a partnership that will see the Mathspace platform introduced to millions of students across the US. Mr Jebara describes his app as the world’s first step-by-step adaptive learning technology for maths education, tailoring maths programs in real time based on a student’s strengths and weaknesses. The company’s main competitor, Mathletics, uses multiple- choice answers whereas Mathspace’s platform helps students line by line. According to Mr Jebara, working out and understanding the concept is more useful for a student than picking the right answer.
