The Rebooting Greek Language series of mobile apps are made for beginner learners of Greek. These apps offer a culturally rich experience for young learners featuring the ability to learn and practise skills, earn rewards and track progress. These apps can be used both online and offline! There are no ads and are completely free!

This level focuses most on the gamification of the learning experience, by transferring elements widely common in video games to the Greek learning context. The learning process uses the metaphor of exploration, with the learners exploring and facing challenges in ancient Greece, using a customizable character. The avatar’s journey becomes their own, and the development of the characters abilities mirrors their own progress in learning Greek. In terms of instructional goals, the knowledge space is extended, to include written speech production and comprehension, along with activities that require artifact creation.
