Coordinate Geometry Learning Environment with Game-Like Properties
Mily’s World is a learning environment for coordinate geometry that has game-like properties, that is, elements of games that are engaging such as cover story, graphical representation, and animated feedback. This paper proposes that adding game-like properties to a computer tutor results in more student engagement and interest in the content material. We have taken a measured and minimalist approach to making the original environment more game-like by making a balance between stimulation and overload. We received mixed result in our experiment with sixty six students.
