About

YouKnow App

Features
Read full description

YouKnow is a playing card game for people of all ages, wanting to learn and compete in facts and knowledge. YouKnow is especially aimed at learning basic maths, geography, biology and natural sciences, for coupling terms with their meaning, to establish an understanding of what that term is. (Please see example file enclosed via app.) Frequent repetition through playing will help establish terms and knowledge in what the Nobel Prize Winner Daniel Kahneman refers to as "System 1" (and also in "System 2", depending on a whole range of factors). YouKnow helps the children and kids establish this knowledge and understanding of terms in maths, geography, biology and natural sciences - by playing with, talking to and interacting with their friends and fellow pupils.
