The Research And Design Of Biological-environmental Education Game Software For Middle School Student

With the rapid development of the internet, more and more youngster are fond of the entertainment online games, and they regard the games as their main recreational activities. But many youngster neglect their studies because of indulging in the online games, so, this is the problem:how can they be fun in the games, and learning something? Some experts brings forth the idea "Educational games", which means the games combine with education. Edutainment aims to provide game scenario to encourage students to learn, meanwhile they will enjoy the games, this is so called "Edutainment".With the new curriculum reform, Biology preaches researching study, it emphasizes the students'abilities of analyzing and solving problems. So, how can we design a edutainment software to free student from the traditional teaching and learn during the playtime? First of all, I find out the current situation of the edutainment in our country, then I learn some principles of the basic theory, research and development about edutainment. Finally, I got to know the attitude of students and those who interested in the edutainment's application and teaching through some surveys. As can be seen in studying,the teaching model, which bring edutainment in classroom is practicable. In order to verify edutainment's merits in teaching, I analyze the subject characteristics,learning content,learning target and the learners'characteristics, link the related elements of the games, pickup the section The impact of humans on the biosphere, then with the flash tech to develop the edutainment software, which based on the high school environmental knowledge. We take the edutainment software into the teaching experiment, and analyze the experiment data, then we find the probability of the software to be the supporting information in the classroom. Furthermore, we also find some problems which need to consider of.The learners'boring life become fun and colorful while they using the edutainment software, which meet the needs of the curriculum reform and optimize the teaching and learning effectiveness somehow, we regard it as the future trend of educations'development.
