Abstract

This paper proposes a novel method for measuring learner's self-efficacy, an important indicator of learner's motivation, in game based e-learning through the interaction of the player with non-player characters. A subjective case study was conducted in order to evaluate the benefits of the proposed game method. The results have shown that the player's self-efficacy changes in time during the game-play. Therefore, it is important to measure it regularly in order to enable maintaining the player motivated during the game-play through game adaptation.
