Abstract
Microsoft Excel is an essential skill for graduates; however, many students complete higher education without achieving sufficient proficiency in Excel, often relying on self-directed learning to address this gap. This study aims to design a digital learning game incorporating GenAI to enhance learners’ motivation, reduce cognitive load, and facilitate effective skill acquisition. A scaffolding-based instructional strategy is proposed, integrating AI tutor and Excel learning content within a unified platform.
