With the rapid popularization of commercial games, more and more young people wallow in these games, When people exclaim over the attraction which game brings, also thinking how can we reference the successes of commerial games and applied the successes to the education.hoping to achieve the educational philosophy of "teaching through lively activities ".However In recent years, studies have shown that The application of instructional games results were not satisfactory, compared with the popular commercial games, instructional games are still experiencing the downturns. One of the major reasons is that Some parents and teachers worried about students addicted to the game, but also questioned the game's instructional function. Therefore, what needs to be solved is how games can be designed and implemented to both educational and entertainment.The author detailed analysis of the educational function of instructional games, Found that learning content hosted by the way of the game can increase interest in learning of learner, effective in promoting learning.However there are still many problems in the present study content to the instructional games,such as navigation or game help is not clear, the game task is too difficult, the game knowledge point is not clear and other issues, that is easy to bring the unnecessarily cognitive load to learner.The study of considering the cognitive load in the design of instructional games has not been report at domestic and international. Through reorganizing the problem that exist in the game design and it's apllication in education.I think cognitive load has a relationship with objective balance and achieve og game objective and game objective in instructional game,and it impact development of educational games,so I chose this theme.The paper Aimmedat the problems existing in the game design and production, points out that the main problem is that process to cognitive load in the game design and production. According to cognitive load theory,the author analyzed the effect factors of instructional game mechanical energy and its transfer.and on the basis,the anthor try to apllication mayer's multi-media awareness principles to reduce extraneous cognitive load in the game,and optimize the germane cognitive load to promotion study,finally the author applicated the instructional game "mechanical energy and its transfer" to the classroom of third-year junior high physical, obtained preliminary results,and receive the recognition of teachers and students.Alao found that there are a few of issues need to be improve,to found direction for future reseach.Centered on the theme of the research, the thesis is composed of five chapters:Chapter 1 introduces the research background of the design and development of instructional games based on cognitive load theory,the status of the dynamic difficulty adjustment of instructional games at home and abroad. Chapter 2 theory basis,The article detailed described the theoretical basis of the study-the cognitive load thoery, definited the concept and structure of cognitive load,reviewed the status of study to cognitive load at home and abroad,described the measurement method of cognitive load.in game part,the studydefined the educational games and instructional games,analyzed the characteristics of instructional games.Chapter 3 analysis of the elements which influence cognitive load of students,and bring forward some instructional games design principles that can effective control cognitive load of learner.Chapter 4 design the instructional game based on cognitive load theory,detailed described the process of designing the instructional games:including:front-end analysis,the design of game part,the design of explorer part,the design of the knowledge memory part,analysis the resource requirements and technology,etc.Chapter 5 investigation the cognitive load of the game,analysis of the cognitive load affecting factors in game,and have statisticed the application results of the game.Chapter 6 Summary and Outlook:the study proposed the deficiencies in the game design and proposed follow-up reseach direction.
