Abstract

The subjects/samples of the study is students aged 8-10 years old in Lixin Primary School in Zaozhuang City, with a total of 40 students. The research methodology adopts the literature research method to understand the theoretical foundation and current research status of educational game design and application. The controlled experimental method was used to conduct a one-week experimental study on 40 students in two classes, including the experimental group and the control group, and finally the results of the pre-test and post-test of the experimental and control groups were analysed in a multi-dimensional way to provide data support for the study. It was found that the students in the experimental group showed significant improvement in correctness in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and overall arithmetic ability as compared to the control group. The experimental group had a significant advantage in the speed of doing the problems, with an average reduction of about 0.2 minutes in the completion time and a 5% increase in the arithmetic speed index. Game-based teaching can effectively improve primary school students’ ability to add, subtract, multiply, divide and overall arithmetic ability.
