摘要

本研究旨在探討於遊戲學習系統中加入生活化學知識對於學習者的學習成就和學習動機的影響。希望藉由運用因應現今日常生活的化學事件推廣化學教育，鼓勵學習者建立科學思考的基本方法與態度，進而建構出相關的知識與技能並解決問題。研究結果發現，學習者經過「生活化學線上遊戲學習系統」之教學設計後，對學習成就有顯著性的提昇。顯示本研究所建置之線上遊戲將生活中的化學物品之原理及應用作為遊戲內容的材料與任務，讓學習者能建構出屬於自己的生活化學概念與知識，而多人連線遊戲的環境能促進同儕互動，增加交流及檢視學習的機會。另由學習動機量表問卷分析顯示，大多數藉由鷹架引導探究學習之多人線上遊戲後學生對於化學知識的學習動機有明顯的提昇。從使用情況調查問題與遊戲過程記錄影片中也得知學習者在探究的過程中，學習者也會尋求已完成任務的同儕協助，檢視自己的問題所在，讓建立科學思考的基本方法與態度，進而建構出相關的知識與技能並解決問題。

In response to chemistry events and our chemistry education of today, educators should encourage learners to establish the basic methods of scientific thinking and attitudes, and then construct the relevant knowledge and skills, and problem solving. Howver, students find most chemistry curriculum boring and disorganized. Therefore, this study builds the scaffolding of guided inquiry learning via a multiplayer online games. A mission based on the principles and application of chemicals in real life is executed within the game. Thus, in their learning, the student control time, space, resources, and security restrictions and freely operate their own experience and explore the games content. The system links chemical concepts and knowledge with learners' own lives. Moreover, game-based learning lets learners retain continuous learning motivation and interest. The results show that the system is effective and motivates learners. In the inquiry process, students are often confused by tasks or events, or do not knowing what to do next. In such cases, they often use the system prompt or ask partners to solve problems.
