A Study on the Effect of a Problem-Solving Game for Team Building

Abstract

In this research, we focused on the similarity of “Problem-solving game” which is prevailing in recent years and “cooperative learning”, and aimed to examine the effect of problem-solving game on social / emotional skill. For this purpose, we developed a problem-solving game for team building and practiced for high school students. As a result of the practice, significant differences at 1% level were in “awareness of contribution to the team” and “communication in the team”. It was suggested that a problem-solving game aimed at team building is effective for “forming desirable relationships and participating in building a good life as a member of group” which is the purpose of “special activities”.
