學生經常採用死記硬背的學習方式,雖然可以在短期間內臨時抱佛腳,並達到一定的學習效率,但卻無法進行知識整合,學到的內容沒多久就遺忘了,將「教過的都還給老師」。 羊群效應是一種跟從大眾的行為,本研究開發一款遊戲式學習系統,該系統利用羊群效應影響因素,促使學生能夠達到長期記憶的學習策略。本研究將學生隨機分為羊群效應組及一般作答組,一般作答組學生以選擇題測驗進行學習;羊群效應組學生則增加一個熱門選項的標示,系統並適度控制該熱門選項並不一定是正確答案的情境,以觀察學生於羊群效應影響因素學習過程,其學習狀況有何變化,以及對學生學習成效的影響。 實驗結果發現,羊群效應組學生之學習成就及長期記憶顯著優於一般作答組學生,且羊群效應組學生的學習興趣前後測檢定結果有顯著提升,而一般作答組學生之認知負荷前後測有顯著加重。進一步透過問卷及訪談分析,發現學生在知識建構到一定程度時,大都發現熱門選項並不一定是正確答案,並逐漸脫離羊群效應的影響,促使學生思考、自主學習以釐清未精熟的知識,進而提升學習成就。本研究並發現羊群效應組內高知識程度學生之學習成就顯著優於一般作答組內高知識學生,而且利用羊群效應影響的學習方式適合學習風格為沉思型或序列型的學生。
Nowadays, students usually learn things by rote before exams; although they can cope with exams, they also have forgotten them, and cannot be united with future Knowledge. Herd behavior is a kind of behavior that follows the masses, the study has developed a digital game-based learning system, “BSJ Entertainment” makes use of the influencing factors of the herd behavior, a learning strategy that promotes students to achieve long-term memory. The study has randomly divided the students into “Herd behavior” Group and “General answer” Group, General answer group learning with multiple choice questions test; herd behavior group has a “HOT” mark on hottest option of multiple choice questions, the system will be moderately controlled the hottest option, and not always the same as the correct answer, to investigate if there is any influence in learning process, learning status and learning achievement for the students of herd behavior group. The experiment result has demonstrated that the students of herd behavior group is better than general answer group in learning achievement and learning retention, herd behavior group of students learning interest improved, and general answer group of students cognitive load increased. Further through interviews and questionnaires, found when students construct knowledge to a certain degree, they found the hottest not always the same as correct answer, and gradually break away the influence of herd behavior, cause student thinking and learning autonomy, and promote the learning achievement. The study also found the students with high prior knowledge of herd behavior group is better than the students with high prior knowledge of general answer group in learning achievement and learning retention, and the learning strategy makes use of the influencing factors suitable for the students which learning style is reflective type or sequential type.
