Abstract

Even though games that focus on the development of logical-mathematical skills aimed at maintaining the attention of children with ADHD currently exist, there are no applications available to learn how to solve mathematical problems. In view of this problem, a serious game was designed and developed to enable children to achieve significant learning in this subject. An evaluation was performed of the interface of a section of the game focusing on the concept of counting. Work was performed with 7 teachers by means of a Wizard of Oz experiment. A CSUQ questionnaire was also used to gather general information on the teachers, such as gender and age. The children’s experience in using the application was also assessed. The study indicates that the current interface is usable, though it requires certain improvements in terms of typography, image design, and color.

UvaMate: ADHD儿童数学学习的严肃游戏:可用性评估
尽管目前有一些游戏专注于发展逻辑数学技能,旨在保持多动症儿童的注意力,但还没有任何应用程序可以学习如何解决数学问题。针对这一问题,我们设计并开发了一个严肃的游戏,让孩子们在这一学科中获得有意义的学习。我们对游戏中侧重于计数概念的部分界面进行了评估。采用《绿野仙踪》实验的方法,与7名教师进行实验。此外,我们还使用了一份CSUQ问卷来收集教师的一般信息,如性别和年龄。孩子们使用应用程序的经验也被评估。研究表明,目前的界面是可用的,尽管它需要在排版、图像设计和颜色方面进行某些改进。
