Hsiao, Hsien-Sheng; Tsai, Fu-Hsing; Hsu, I.-Ying – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2020
Past studies have suggested that young people lack knowledge regarding food safety, and that food safety education is appropriate for integration into science education since it often involves science knowledge. Thus, this study combined the methods of inquiry-based and game-based learning to develop a computer detective game, called the Poison…
