Such a good idea. Once he gets it up and running, I'll almost certainly be having a go.

I am not sure to understand. 

[Makkal]

That sounds interesting.

[Sofia Roseburn]

The concept certainly sounds like an interesting take on modular education. Might be worth keeping a tab on.

I am not sure to understand. 

Roc will be creating a fitness program that has 'skill levels' in a similar way to Eve. To begin the next 'skill' routine, you first have to 'train' the required skills by completing an easier routine.

In a very very basic example, it might look like this:

Pull ups lvl1: 10 pull ups
Pull ups lvl2: 15 pull ups in 2 minutes
Pull ups lvl3: 20 pulls ups
etc
etc

(For the record, I have no idea how to set up a routine, so please don't take that seriously ._. )

I LIKE IT > : | LE'S DO DIS.

[Safai]

Yeah, I am on board with this.

There are actually a few programs that work this way already, trying to 'gamify' fitness and other experiences.

Their main shortcomings have been that they are for computer, rather than mobile, platforms.

There are successful programs for tracking and incentiving activity (mapmyride, for example) that take advantage of mobile devices and GPS.

Something that included both has real potential.
