A Learning Game on the Structure of Arithmetic Story by Chained Sentence Integration

Abstract

Problem-posing ability has a positive relationship with mathematics achievement and the understanding of the mathematical structure of problems. This study focuses on creating arithmetical stories as a sub-task of problem posing and proposes a game named "Tri-prop scrabble" as a learning environment based on a fusion method of learning and game. In the game, learners are expected to experience creating and comparing a variety of arithmetical stories by integrating simple sentences.
