| dc.description.abstract | Learning language is for communication. Students learn in the drama which simulate the problems that may encounter in the real situation, and solve the problems through communication and interaction. However, in life or in the workplace, in addition to oral expression, non-verbal communication and interactivity with visual relevance is also required. Therefore, this study built the digital learning theater with visual interaction understanding. The system allows students to use the pictures, physical objects or handwritten words to learn the language and the visual interactions knowledge required in communication. Through visual interactive tasks, visual recognition function and virtual character interaction feedback, students can immediately know whether their visual interaction in the drama is correct, understand their learning situation and correct the mistakes to achieve the task. In addition, there is a scoring mechanism. When the student’s interaction result is correct, they can get score rewards. When it is wrong, they will be deducted points. Let the students perform dramas in a similar way of game and competition, increase learning motivation, and improve learning outcomes.
This study cooperated with teachers in a university in Taoyuan City and conducted an experiment. The experimental group used the digital learning theater with visual interaction understanding. The number of students was 31. The control group used the digital learning theater without visual interaction understanding. The number of students was 44. The experimental results show that the digital learning theater with visual interaction understanding can improve the students′ language learning performance and enhance the visual interaction ability required in the communication. Moreover, through the questionnaire, we learned that the students think that the digital learning theater with visual interaction understanding is more interesting, and it can also increase students′ learning motivation and deepen their impression of learning. | en_US |
