Abstract

It’s been years to years fractions have been known as one of the most difficult topics in mathematics to be learned. In some cases, this situation even can lead to others learning problems such as students’ anxiety and loss of motivation for learning mathematics. Failure in understanding the basic concept of fractions will hinder the students’ learning of further algebraic concepts. Games become one of the options that can be chosen for solving this problem. There are various designs of the games either digital or physical games which have been released and played to teach the fraction concepts. Nowadays as digital games become more and more accessible for students, the case of games addiction is increasing significantly. This situation has affected some schools and teachers to limit the use of digital games for classroom teaching. Teachers tend to use physical games instead digital games in their classrooms. The fact, besides the negative impact of digital games, at the same time this situation indicate that there is an opportunity to use digital games as a learning tool for teaching fraction concept. This paper aims to analyze the use of games for teaching fractions through a literature review. A bibliographic research design using PRISMA framework will be carried out. Data resources were referred to Scopus data based from the year of 2017 until 2022. Only journal paper and conference proceeding were included in the data set. The result of this study will be beneficial for developing a game design for teaching fractions either digital or physical.
