TenSun’s goal is to provide simple activities that engage users and encourage them to continue exploring their topic in the physical world. We believe that, when it comes to technology, less is more. Our activities are designed to engage students for a discreet purpose. We expect them to use our software then move away from the computer to explore, in the world around them.

You will find no bells and whistles in TenSun software. Our goal is to design activities that are simply interesting, to the intended audience, in an age-appropriate way. As in the physical world, when a lesson is sufficiently well designed, students respond. We strive to spark intrinsic motivation that results in self-directed mastery of a lesson.

We often use children’s voices in our applications, because children have responded well to them. We like to call on visual learning and listening skills, and do so as often as possible. The only text that appears in the MyWorld™ Geography Series is on the copyright screen ... and that appears only at the behest of our intellectual property lawyer.
