Abstract

This study is motivated by the limited availability of educational materials capable of addressing the needs of children with special needs, particularly those with learning disabilities (slow learners), in understanding material about wildlife while developing social skills. Children with learning disabilities typically have difficulties with long-term memory retention and experience relatively high levels of social anxiety, thus requiring learning materials that are visual, interactive, and non-stressful. The objective of this study is to design an educational board game titled “ZooQuest” that can serve as a tool to stimulate children’s cognitive and social abilities. The design process follows the ADDIE model, integrated with a qualitative approach through direct observation and literature reviews on child developmental psychology. Results from a pilot study indicate that the use of this board game can gradually help improve children’s cognitive abilities, particularly in recognizing animal names and physical characteristics through the reinforcement of visual associations. Additionally, positive developments were observed in social aspects, such as the ability to follow rules and communicate with fellow players, although these improvements were not yet significant in the short term. Thus, it can be concluded that the board game “ZooQuest” has the potential to serve as an effective inclusive learning tool, capable of encouraging active student participation and creating a more enjoyable learning experience for children with learning difficulties. Keywords: Board game, Cognitive skills, Social skills, Slow learner.
