Abstract: "n this study we explored the impact of performing mathematical tasks presented in the context of an
"adventure challenge" or a "mathematical challenge" in a videogame. This videogame - "Matemáquina
do Tempo" - is being developed to facilitate learning of mathematical skills like counting, grouping,
and relating numbers. The videogame consists in various movement control tasks with dynamic (e.g.,
running) and static (e.g., pointing) interactions. Our goal was to test the impact of the integration of a
direct mathematical task versus an indirect mathematical task. A group of 18 five year-old children
performed the game in two conditions: a)
adventure challenge
, which implied movements such as
running or climbing trees to perform mathematical tasks of counting and grouping; and
b)
mathematical challenge
, which included swimming after selecting the correct path through counting,
followed by a direct mathematical task of pointing to organize numbers in a line. Our assumptions
were evaluated according to questionnaires and video analysis of the children playing the game.
Results confirmed our hypothesis, showing that players performing the mathematical challenge
generally considered that they were learning with the game, and most agreeing that the game was
fun. Participants in the adventure challenge condition on the other hand, showed a tendency to
evaluate the game as
very amusing
and were more distributed in the learning evaluation. In
conclusion, we suggest that the inclusion of direct mathematical tasks in the videogame might lead to
increased perception of learning, although they also seem to result in lower amusement ratings."
