摘要
In this paper, the authors present an investigative process which can be used to enhance the design of mathematics learning games. Several techniques such as mathematics pedagogy and game design lenses [12] were studied in the development of this investigative process. Game design lenses are tools developed for examining game designs. The game design lenses were analyzed and mapped to several mathematics specific teaching and learning theories. The authors present a mapping of the lenses to the learning theories and the resultant process investigates and incorporates suitable theories into a mathematics game design. This paper presents a process for incorporating necessary teaching and learning theories into mathematics learning games.
