KYP (Know Your Place) is a series of apps for educating and entertaining as you learn about a place, whether a university campus, city, state or country. The app is not a travel guide. The main goal is to learn about a place's architecture, geography, history and people.
The method involves the presentation of a quiz with several questions. Question are designed in varying combinations of text, images and geographic maps.
A question (whether answered correctly or not) is followed by an Explanation and further information about the subject of the question. A lot of the learning is included in the Explanations. Some Explanations have images and links to websites that have more information.
The questions are categorized into levels of difficulty. This is used in determining the rating as the quiz progresses. The numerical score is never presented but the level of expertise (trending as the quiz is under way or final when the quiz is completed) about a place is shown. The purpose is to provide an entertaining and competitive approach to learning about a place.
