We present results of a grounded analysis of individual interviews in which students play Vector Unknown -- a digital game designed to introduce visualizing vectors, scaling vectors, vector addition, and vector equations, attending to the geometric and algebraic representations of vectors. The game was designed to be used at the beginning of a…

The study aimed to identify the impact of game-based teaching practices available in different curricula on academic achievement. The study adopted meta-analysis method via grouping similar studies about that subject, theme under the heading of certain criteria, and combining the quantitative data obtained.
