Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 創造力發展碩士班 === 101 === This study aimed to explore the efficacy of a mathematical game entitled “Strike up” in assisting students with learning disabilities to grasp the principles of the four mathematical arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division). A sixth grade student subject with mathematic learning disability was chosen with a peer from the same class in the present study. The students were subjected to teaching interventions. Based on action research, data on student’s (1) learning self-efficacy, and (2) math-learning anxiety were collected and analyzed through means of interviews, questionnaire and researchers ’observatory records. The results revealed students with increased learning self-efficacy tend to have lower math-learning anxiety, in other words, by adjusting game difficulties, the use of “Strike up” can lead to improved learning outcomes in students with learning disabilities, as well as raising their math learning interests. The results from the present study suggests, the use of game is a suitable media in education, by taking into account the learning progress of different students, and make adjustments accordingly, a better teaching learning outcome can be achieved.
