  • Abstract
    This paper presents a computer-aided learning software for senior high school students to study chemistry while playing games. Students can collect chemical equations, necessary reactants and experiment devices in the game world and carry out chemical experiments under step-by-step instructions in the virtual lab. The game system not only provides students an immersive context to learning by playing, but also a virtual space to implement chemical experiments with fancy visual effects and without physical danger.
