Project Description
Rolling Tasks is a machine that rewards an individual with a gumball for completing several tasks. It is extremely hard for individuals, especially teens, to complete homework after a long day of school and work. Research has found that when the brain expects to receive a reward, it releases dopamine, which enhances reward-related memories. The hippocampus is also strengthened, the brain’s learning and memory center, resulting in a more productive learning environment. The machine targets an individual’s productiveness while making it an enjoyable experience for the user.
