基于教育神经科学的数学游戏设计研究

The Design of Educational Games Based on Learning Sciences

Educational Games are games especially designed with definite learning goals. The design of educational games requires not only the fun elements of game which support the engaging learning environment， but also the well-designed game mechanisms which guarantee the scientific learning process. Educational Neuroscience， an emerging research field of Learning Sciences， makes the brain-based learning research possible via advanced brain imaging technology. Based on the current findings in educational neuroscience， this paper first summarized the overall learning process of number recognition and calculation in brain; and then analyzed the game design rules of The Number Race， according to the brain-based findings in math learning; finally， three suggestions for further development of educational games are proposed and elaborated.
