    Educational Games Software: Drill and Practice Software

    Uploaded by

    Azea Montefalco
    Drill and practice software allows students to work on example items one at a time and provides feedback. There are different types of feedback including flash cards, branching drills, and extensive feedback that explains why an answer is wrong. Instructional games link gaming and education to encourage fun and learning through rules and competition while aligning to curriculum. Problem-solving software focuses on developing problem-solving skills like observing, recalling information, analyzing, and predicting outcomes. Simulation software models real or imagined systems to teach how systems work through physical or iterative simulations and procedural or situational simulations. Tutorial software provides self-contained supplemental instruction similar to classroom teaching in a linear or branching format with user control, appropriate pedagogy, feedback, and record

    Drill and Practice software

    allows students to work example items one at a time. This type of software will typically
    provide feedback to the student. However, the type of feedback does vary from program
    to program. Types include:

     Flash card activities: student chooses and answer and then the program gives
    feedback;
     Branching drills: these are more sophisticated and the next question is
    determined by whether the question at hand was answered correctly or not;
     Extensive feedback: students will receive feedback as to why the answer was
    wrong, though this is sometimes mistaken for a tutorial as the feedback can be
    very detailed.

    Instructional games Educational Games Software Technology based games


    link the world of gaming, entertainment and education, i.e. edutainment, together in ways
    that encourage both fun and learning. Instructional games provide the means for
    learning activities that have rules and can provide a sense of competition.  The whole
    purpose is to keep students motivated and engaged while actually working on a
    curriculum topic. They can be used in place of worksheets and exercises, to be used in
    group work, and/or as a reward / competition. As Robyler stated, "Instructional games
    add game-like rules and/or competition to learning activities. Though be sure not to
    overuse this type of software and they should be aligned to curriculum lessons and state
    standards.  Relative advantage: Interactive, entertaining, reduces teacher preparation
    time.

    Problem-solving software is designed for the use of problem-solving. The software


    focuses on skills and approaches specifically to problem-solving ability. The purpose
    would be to strengthen a student’s ability in observing, recalling, information,
    sequencing, analyzing, finding and organizing information, inferring, predicting,
    outcomes, making analogies and formulating ideas.
     
    Simulation Software
    Simulation software is either a computerized model of a real or imagined system that is designed
    to teach how a system works.  When students use a simulation they must choose tasks and the
    order in which to complete them.   There are two types of simulation:
    1.      Those that teach about something:
    ·        Physical simulations allow users to manipulate things or a process on the
    screen;
    ·        Iterative simulations where processes can be sped up or slowed down so the
    user can watch the events unfold.
    2.      Those that teach how to do something.
    ·        Procedural simulation which teach a sequence of steps to perform certain
    procedures;
    ·        Situational simulations provide users with hypothetical problems or situations
    that they can react to.
    Tutorial Software is an instructional sequence on a topic that is similar to what the
    teacher instruction is in the classroom. Tutorials are mean to be used as a self-
    contained supplemental instructional resource.

     Linear tutorials give the same instruction sequence of explanation, practice and
    feedback to all learners
     Branching Tutorial: provides more sophisticated instructions that direct learners
    on their own personal path depending on how they respond to the question right
    or wrong.

    The benefits include user control, appropriate pedagogy, and adequate feedback
    adjusting to user responses and have record keeping.  Relative advantage: Interactive,
    entertaining, self-guided, self-paced.
