The Golden Ratio of Instructive Content to Entertaining Content in Mobile Augmented Reality Games

Abstract

Mobile augmented reality games are more effective for teaching and learning, and the impact of different proportions of learning content in mobile augmented reality games on preschoolers' learning outcomes is significant. For preschoolers there is a golden ratio that makes them learn better. This paper will discuss the impact of the proportion of game content on learning outcomes in mobile augmented reality games. The results show that the right proportion of instructional content in mobile augmented reality games enhances teaching effectiveness, satisfaction, entertainment and motivation. However, the proportion of learning content in play varies significantly across the age range. This study focuses on improving teaching effectiveness for teachers and designers by adjusting the proportion of instructional content in mobile augmented reality games when the content is similar.
