Quasi-experimental design reveals game-based strategies improve numeracy in kindergarteners, indicating both digital and traditional games are beneficial.
Key Points
Both digital and traditional games significantly improved numeracy performance in kindergarten pupils.
The study involved 30 children aged 5–6, showing a transition from 'Did not meet expectations' to 'Outstanding' in assessments.
Using a quasi-experimental design, pre- and post-tests evaluated numeracy skills before and after a one-month intervention.
Findings support integrating diverse game-based activities in early childhood classrooms to enhance engagement and learning.
