摘要：With the rapid development of multimedia, various types of materials used in the design of problemsolving activities have attracted a considerable amount of attention from researchers. The adaptive materials employed in learning activities could enhance learning performance, and motivate learners to seek the solution to a problem. Personalizing a learning environment to optimize individual learning has recently become a popular trend in elearning. Therefore, this study was carried out to explore how the learning materials of a problemsolving activity influence learning performance; thus we created a multimaterialbased learning system (MBLS) consisting of animated gamebased material and static text material. The MBLS develops a series of problemsolving tasks to train the learner how to deal with risk. Each task was developed based on the problemsolving model, and the presentation of each task’s scenario was classified as either static or dynamic. To achieve the goal of personalized learning, learners could choose the most suitable material for the problemsolving activity. Teachers were included in an expert validation test in this study to examine the performance and reliability of the learning material in the MBLS. The experimental results show that, when the multimaterials are employed, the participants have a 95% probability of obtaining an aboveaverage score using stratification, which suggests that the employed multimaterial technique can be a good vehicle for providing adaptive learning that is related to problem solving.
