Chen, Ching-Huei; Liu, Jun-Han; Shou, Wen-Chuan – Educational Technology & Society, 2018
Although educational games have become prevalent in recent research, only a limited number of studies have considered learners' learning behaviors while playing a science problem-solving game. Introducing a competitive element to game-based learning is promising; however, research has produced ambiguous results, indicating that more studies should…

Chen, Ching-Huei; Howard, Bruce – Educational Technology & Society, 2010
This study examined the effect of live simulation on students' science learning and attitude. A total of 311 middle school students participated in the simulation, which allowed them to access and interpret satellite data and images and to design investigations. A pre/post design was employed to compare students' science learning and attitude…
