High school algebra students struggle to understand basic probability concepts like 'and' and 'or' despite repeated examples, lacking a way to intuitively visualize compound event logic.

Existing instruction methods (verbal examples, textbook problems) fail to help students with abstract probability concepts; there is no interactive visual tool that concretely shows overlapping sets and compound events.

App Concept

ProbViz: Interactive Probability Visualizer

A web-based app that lets teachers and students visually explore probability concepts using dynamic Venn diagrams, deck-of-cards simulators, and event trees. Students can drag cards, toggle 'and'/'or' filters, and see real-time probability calculations to build intuition.

Key Features

Interactive drag-and-drop card deck to create events like 'Ace or Heart' with real-time probability display
Dynamic Venn diagram that updates as events are selected
Customizable scenario builder for teachers to create their own probability problems
Classroom dashboard showing student answers and common misconceptions

Target Users: High school math teachers and their students (grades 9-12) teaching probability units

Revenue Model: $5/mo per teacher subscription (includes unlimited students) with $50/year school-wide license
