Survey Research on Games that are Useful for Learning Chemistry

Abstract

Chemistry is the study of the structure, state and changes of matter, and it is useful for creating new materials and solving environmental problems. However, learning chemistry is difficult, not only because of the large amount of information that needs to be memorized, but also because it requires an understanding of abstract concepts. Therefore, in chemistry education, there have been attempts to overcome this difficultly by using games, but their social recognition is low. In this study, we conducted a survey on games that are useful for learning chemistry, and we would like to report on the details this.
