Designing a typing game with Chinese words to sustain flow experience of children

In this study, we argue that the development of flow-based typing games should not only stimulate motivation but also sustain motivation of the design of typing Chinese words. In particularly, this system combined level- and star-mechanism to adjust the content of level (challenge) and the speed of typing (skill) of typing games; it possible enables children to sustain the flow experience. Findings revealed that the potentiality of flow-based typing game for sustaining the flow experience of children and facilitating the accessibility of numerous Chinese words. Besides, some implications about the experimental results were also discussed.
