ChessPlus is an educational consultancy which provides a new approach to applying strategy games in the classroom. We give precedence to educational goals and methods rather than mastering the game itself. Building upon feedback from thousands of learners, games are reduced down into their basic elements. We provide teachers and parents with tools and materials to introduce these games in a variety of interesting and exciting ways and thus promote mathematical, logical and creative skills, and ultimately metacognition.

Switzerland
