碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 人類發展與家庭學系 === 101 === This study was to investigate the difference of young children’s mathematical performance between the physical game-based learning and the digital game-based learning. Researcher used purposive sampling. The 151 four to five-year-old children from three public kindergartens in Taipei, participated in this study. They completed two tasks and one test, i.e., "I will calculate the number displayed in physical game “, "I will calculate the number displayed in digital game“, and the TEMA-2. By using the SPSS19.0, the results showed as follows: 1. Young children's mathematical performance in the physical games was better than it in the digital games. 2. Boys got better scores than girls in both physical and digital math games. 3. Five-year-olds performed better in both physical and digital math games than the four-year-olds. 4. The young children’s scores in the physical math games would not be influenced by social-economic status, either in the digital math games. 5. The young children who had the computer contact experience got the higher scores than those who hadn’t the computer contact experience. 6. Young children's mathematical ability played the modulated function between their physical game-based math learning and digital game-based math learning.
