| Popis: | 104 The field of education is continually exploring ways to help learners learn better. Various methods have been used at different times. Today’s younger generations are growing up in an age of computer development; as a result, they are not only familiar with computers, but also quite comfortable working with computers. In light of this context, using computer games as a learning medium can create new learning opportunities and learning motivation for younger generations growing up in constant contact with computer and video games (Bowman, 1982). This study builds a game-based learning system to help elementary students learn mathematics. The learning system includes a double mode and a single mode from which to choose. In the double mode, learners will engage in collaborative learning. The study compares the learning effectiveness of collaborative learning, the single mode, and the traditional model. In addition, it uses the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to evaluate the game system and predict learners’ behaviors. The TAM integrates some external variables, including learners’ characteristics, motivation, and computer self-efficacy. |
