500 Startups Demo Day: Motion Math Looks To Make Learning Fun Again
Dave McClure's seed fund, accelerator, and incubator, 500 Startups, held an open house in Mountain View today to officially introduce the world to its first batch of companies. The group of mostly consumer-focused startups (not much advertising to be found) at Demo Day put forth quite a few interesting ideas and business models. We'll be posting a roundup of the best startups (with interviews) later tonight. Among those nifty ideas presenting today is Motion Math, a startup creating a suite of educational apps intended to give kids a more interactive (and fun) way to learn challenging topics. The startup (which just raised an undisclosed seed round from 500 Startups and a flock of angels) wants to leverage the engaging physical aspects of the mobile experience, like the touch interface and accelerometer, to create that interactive quality which will help kids internalize what they're learning.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/UfCpKtT79b8/
