After enriching the cards. I conducted a prototype 1 experiment last weekend and surveyed 5 children after the experiment. I got some conclusions.

Through this experiment, I found that all children believed that this game increased their interest in insects.

This chart shows how children rated their interest in insects before and after the experiment. All children think that cooperative games will be more interesting.
In experiments, children will act as teachers in the exploration process, explaining their understanding of insects to their partners. In the process of my explanation, children can stay focused for a long time. All children think that they have gained some knowledge from the game and are willing to play again.

Questions in the experiment:
1. Not sure if the child answered my question objectively.
2. Need to determine the “I”, that is, the role of the experimenter in the whole set of tools.

Research plan 2 I want to enrich my previous card prototype.
In previous experiments, I learned that children are only interested in certain insects. Very scared of some scary-looking insects such as spiders. So I decided to select some more acceptable insects from different insect species for them to observe. And to get some more objective feedback, I decided to let children host the game by themselves this time and observe their reactions.
for the card prototype I want to Add:
1. Mission system.
For example: Enrich the task flow and divide it into six parts: reaching the location, looking for insects, discovering, observing, exploring, and going to the next destination.
2. Reward system
Children will be rewarded after completing the task.
3. Two-person cooperation mode
In each game, a child takes turns to play my role in the previous test.how children play how different type learning type1 piaget fantasy game learning style .
