Title
Investigating different instructional approaches adopted in educational games
Abstract
The present paper conducted a preliminary investigation attempting to examine how educational games implement instructional strategies to promote the players' deeper understanding. According to the criteria proposed in this study, five studies were selected from the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) database for this review. Through the analysis, the instructional approaches reviewed consisted of prediction-observation-explanation (POE), self-explanation, collaboration, problem-based gaming (PBG), as well as guidance, reflection, and interactivity. In addition to description of each instructional strategy, limitations and possible remediation were discussed and proposed for future research.
