Popis: To improve the problem of teacher demand and supply imbalances and to facilitate student acquisition of information related to teaching and achieve talent selection optimization for education programs, this study creates a teaching situational judgment test for college students who desire to enroll in teacher education programs. Furthermore, this study develops a game-based teaching situational judgment test from the integration of game and simulation media to increase the accuracy of the situation, thus achieving the goal of increasing the validity of teaching situational judgment tests. This study performs validity analysis on game-based and text-based teaching situational judgment tests. The text-based teaching situational judgment test was evaluated to have high validity. The game-based teaching situational judgment test had the concurrent validity of the text-based test. Game-based teaching situational judgment tests were determined to be more suitable for current college students, based on validity and subject questionnaire analysis.
