Overview

As a Student Assistant at City University of Hong Kong, I focused on developing educational games aimed at teaching computational thinking through the gamification of mathematics and computer science concepts for K-12 students. This work culminated in a paper presented at CTE2017.

Key Contributions

  • Research and Development: Contributed to the paper titled “Teaching Computational Thinking by Gamification of K-12 Mathematics and Computer Science Tournament,” presented at the CTE2017 conference.
  • Educational Game Design: Developed The Algebra Game and The Algebra Maze, applications designed to make learning algebra concepts more engaging for young students.
  • Impact on Education: Enhanced student engagement in computational and mathematical thinking, fostering a deeper understanding of core concepts.

Project Highlights

  • The Algebra Game: A competitive educational game encouraging students to apply algebraic concepts through interactive gameplay.
  • The Algebra Maze: A puzzle-based game where players navigate mazes by solving algebra problems, reinforcing problem-solving skills in a fun, gamified environment.
