Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research aims to develop and evaluate the game-based learning environment that connects informal learning with formal learning. We conduced two research; designing the learning environment that connect informal learning with formal learning, and developing the game-based learning for its connection. The results revealed that learning with physical motion in informal learning environment seems to enhance the connection with formal learning, and game-based learning environment that connects informal learning with formal learning can be effective on the both perception of its effects and learning performance.
