Abstract

This article presents an experience in teaching mathematical thinking through games in a math course for non-science majors. The course described here has run twice on the campus of Sam Houston State University and is a combination of escape room pedagogy and game-based pedagogy. From these courses, I note an increased engagement of students with course material, more positive attitudes about the course, and stronger learning.

逃避学期:游戏教学法在非科学专业数学课程中的应用
本文介绍了在非理科生数学课程中运用游戏进行数学思维教学的经验。这里描述的课程已经在山姆休斯顿州立大学的校园里运行了两次,是逃生室教学法和基于游戏的教学法的结合。从这些课程中,我注意到学生对课程材料的参与度增加了,对课程的态度更积极了,学习效果也更好了。
