In general, the teaching method using textbooks can be said to be a simple memorization type of education that requires the trainee to repeatedly write, read, and speak the relevant education.

This simple memorization method of education may seem to have fulfilled the educational purpose during training, but there are cases where the trainee does not accurately recognize the training content after a certain period of time has passed.

Image association learning is a more effective learning method than the simple memorization method described above. However, this can also be limited to simply listing flat pictures, and has shown many limitations in learning effectiveness over time.

Meanwhile, teaching aids such as jigsaw puzzles are widely used to improve the cognitive abilities of infants, children, and dementia patients. These teaching aids have the advantage that the pieces are composed of somewhat geometric shapes, allowing for somewhat interesting jigsaw puzzles.

However, with puzzle materials like the ones above, you can easily get bored if you complete the puzzle pieces over and over again.

In other words, existing puzzle teaching materials may be less practical due to their simple composition, and their effectiveness is mostly minimal. This is because it does not provide diversity as a jigsaw puzzle, and there are educational limitations as a result.
