Paper Abstract:
|
The traditional learning method can be a challenging activity if the students are children with ADHD. There are studies
that indicate that educational video games enhance the learning process in children. To objectively validate the
aforementioned claim, this study aims to analyze and compare the brain waves activity of children with ADHD while
learning scientific concepts through traditional methods and educational video games. To do this, the activity is monitored
with an EEG headset while they learn. A pilot study has been conducted with 7 children aged 7 to 9 to evaluate the learning
effectiveness of using video games versus traditional learning. The results support that playing educational video games
makes the learning process more enjoyable and engaging for children with ADHD, thereby improving their study skills
and knowledge acquisition. |
