\nWe investigated whether basic arithmetic skills of nursery school children can be trained with a newly developed app-based number game, based on the model of acqui-sition of basic arithmetic concepts. The application (app)-based number game is an adaptive training program.
In an explorative study, 33 German 4- to 6-year-old children were quasi-randomly as-signed to an intervention or a passive control group. Arithmetic performance of chil-dren was assessed three times, in a pre-, post- and follow-up test design. Children of the intervention group played the app-based number game four times between pre- and post-test.
The results show that the adaptive app-based game led to significantly greater gains on all five levels of acquisition of basic arithmetic concepts compared to no specific ac-tivities in the passive control group. We conclude that the adaptive app-based number game can contribute to the development of basic arithmetic concepts. We discuss pos-sible explanations and practical implications.
