title = "The Effects of Mathematics Game-based Learning with Random Maze Generation",
abstract = "Mathematics is one of the difficult subjects that many students can agree on, especially in higher education. The key to teaching mathematics is repetition. Students' skills can be nurtured by practicing repetitively. This concept of repetition can be integrated with the video game framework. This study proposes game-based mathematics teaching with procedural content generation. This study involved an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was tutored with game-based learning. The tutoring involved a self-made game designed with random maze generation. The maze was fitted with mathematic problems to be solved by the player as part of its design. This design presented an interactive mathematics exercise for its players. On the other hand, the control group will be tutored traditionally. Both groups were given a pre-test and a post-test. The result provided data for analysis. The analysis will use the non-parametric tests {"}Mann-Whitney U Test{"}and {"}Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test.{"}The experimental group was also given questionnaires to be filled out at the beginning and the end of the experiment. The questionnaire results represented how the proposed game design was received by the experimental group. The results of this study show positive results. Game-based tutoring produces a slightly better result than the traditional method. The participants in the experimental group had positive opinions on the game design, content, and fun aspect but not for its difficulty and impact on study interest.",
