An ever-growing trend in education is the integration of mobile devices in the school setting, especially considering the abundance of research available on BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). Not surprisingly, a common concern found is the lack of student interest in educational applications. This capstone reports a summary of the research, design, and development of a competition-driven educational trivia gaming application from idea to release. TriviaPrep is an app designed and developed to harness competitive and addictive qualities that many mobile trivia applications offer while replacing the random trivia questions with core curriculum concepts. The foundational objective of the questions presented in the app are targeted toward college-preparatory students looking to practice standardized assessment questions, like that found on the American College Testing (ACT) assessment.
