Practice of Game-based Learning for University Students to Support Career Development

Abstract

In this research, in order to contribute to career development in a rapidly changing modern society, we employed the use of a game-based teaching material JobStar (large class version), to create future jobs from public university subjects. The results showed significant differences before and after the practice on four items, including "career plannability," identified as the career attributes that university students should acquire. Additionally, during practice, beyond the "want to” orientation that many university students possess, there is a possibility that some students acquired the career view that a "social perspective" is necessary when choosing a job.
