Getting Started with NoryLogic 『One Story a Day, Read and Think Three Times』

Getting Started with NoryLogic

『NoryLogic』 is a service in which a child reads one story a day and thinks about it three times. It rewrites what is happening in the world today and primary school concepts at a child's level, then continues with a comprehension quiz, a reasoning question and a thought journal. The machine does not hand over the answer. The child gives the reasons. Here is the path from the first visit to finishing one session, with real screens. NoryLogic is currently in Korean.

Three choices on the first visit

On the first visit, NoryLogic asks what you most want from it (thinking skills, curriculum learning or both), which areas to focus on, and whether to get study reminders. Focus areas are grouped by where a child meets the world, such as 『money and exchange』, 『energy and force』 and 『living things』. Choose 『evenly』 for a mix of all areas. You can change these any time under 『Settings』 at the bottom of the home screen.

One mission on the home screen

The home screen shows a single story to read today. Look at the title, the illustration and the one line summary, then tap 『Start today's mission』. Below it are links to the concept map, the thinking constellation, categories and the archive.

To pick a different story, browse the six subjects under 『Categories』. Tapping a subject shows a few stories, and logging in opens the full list.

One session has four steps

As an example, here are the four screens of the story 『How do rockets get to space?』.

  1. 『Reading』: read the text, rewritten at a child's level. Tapping an underlined word shows its meaning, and a short dialogue between two characters follows. The story can also be listened to.

  1. 『Comprehension quiz』: answer one question that finds a fact in the text. An explanation appears as soon as an answer is chosen.

  1. 『Reasoning question』: look at two clues, choose an answer, then answer a question that asks for the reason, like 『why do you think so?』. This is the most important step in NoryLogic.

  1. 『Thought journal』: write your own thoughts on a question linked to the story. After writing, one more follow up question appears. Tapping 『Finish today's learning』 saves the record, and this needs a login.

The record becomes a concept map

When a session ends, a record is kept, and the 『concept map』 lights up, on a map shaped like a brain, the primary school curriculum standards linked to the stories the child has finished. The screen shows child friendly names such as 『energy and force』 and 『money and exchange』 instead of curriculum codes.

Tap 『Now』, 『In a week』 or 『In a year』 and choose how many stories a day, and you can preview how far the map will light up if the child keeps going. At one story a day, all 331 concepts for grades one to four are shown as lit after a year.

Good to know

  1. Stories can be read without logging in. Log in to keep a record such as stars, journal entries and the concept map.
  2. AI writes the first draft of each NoryLogic story, but it does not go out as is. It is checked against source articles, and only stories a person has approved for copyright, safety, facts, style and structure are published.
  3. Stories that start from the news do not describe the incident itself. Only the concept behind the news becomes a story, and illustrations are drawn for the service instead of using news photos.
  4. The screens are currently in Korean.

How to use it at home

  1. One story a day is enough. The texts are short, so it fits after dinner or before bed.
  2. Sit beside the child for the reasoning step. After the child chooses an answer, ask 『why do you think so?』 out loud once more.
  3. Don't correct the thought journal. What matters is that the child wrote it in their own words, more than the spelling.
  4. Look at the concept map together once a week. Talk about which spots lit up recently and which story the child remembers.
