Grockit is a multiplayer online environment where players can earn experience points by showing off their knowledge in educational games. Then they earn “grockit” points (named after the concept of “grokking” in the science fiction novel Stranger in a Strange Land) by playing games with less experienced users and helping them out.
The idea is that people learn more by working with their peers, rather than just by taking notes from a teacher.
Grockit can help users prepare for tests like the GMAT exam, which people take to get into business school.
