The Smileycoin (SMLY) is utilized for rewarding students for their performance in the tutor-web learning environment. The tutor-web system is a fully open and freely accessible educational system with a concentration in mathematics and statistics. This system has been examined in Europe and Africa, in high schools and universities. It is most commonly used by students who need to practice difficult topics. This is done in an online drill based environment intended to improve learning. Often an instructor will point the students to this resource and may use the tutor-web grade as a course grade. The tutor-web pays students for completing their drills and exercises, using Smileycoin. The actual amount paid differs from course to course. Currently, a student gets one or a few SMLY for passing a lecture but many more for the highest grade. The student can download a SMLY wallet and redeem the earned SMLY into the wallet. The student can then pay a peer for tutoring utilizing the coin earned in the system, buy coffee for the SMLY or exchange them for other coins.
