Abstract

The purpose of this pilot study was to rank commercially available digital math games for selection in a larger future study of digital math games developed for 6th-8th grade students. This paper reports on the preliminary results found from playing and ranking the first 261 commercially available games which were identified. Overall, the findings suggest it will be difficult to find digital math games that fulfill our criteria as we play the next 240+ games. We were able to find one game which fulfilled one of the nine different games criteria for which we are searching.
