The MTC Cup
So that using Emile impacts Year 4 MTC scores, there are only certain game types that allow students to score points for the world cup. Namely those MTC style games that cover all the times tables 2-12 with 6 seconds to answer.
Your students have access to a number of different games (including spelling games) but these of course do not contribute points.
Using “Go to MTC” is the easiest way for students to contribute.
Alternately, they can click on MTC Cup or MTC War and see how they are doing, how the school is doing and the top 5 performers. On that screen, there is a “Play” button.
How Scores are Determined.
When playing an appropriate MTC style game, every correct answer means a point for that student. Wrong answers have no impact. We are rewarding effort to encourage students to do the game again and again.
Students are ranked in order of points. Each student is then given a score based on their rank. This is so that 3 or 4 students that score masses of point don’t overwhelm the contribution of other students.
Finally, the average score of the students determines the school’s position.
