The growing demand for sustainable products and services has led to the emergence of a range of entrepreneurial opportunities for innovative business solutions. These new opportunities require novel entrepreneurial skills to design, grow, and maintain sustainable businesses. However, existing educational games do not address the specific skills…

This computer game was designed and developed to enhance the skills of high school students in balancing chemical equations. The game simulates a trip to the beach and consists of three missions, ranging from easy to difficult levels, enabling players to engage in a contextual learning experience. The objectives of this computer game development…

Many high school students fear and dislike introductory biomechanics, which can add to the challenges physical educators face in teaching and supporting their students' learning. There is evidence that active and participative learning approaches can improve student engagement with and understanding of biomechanical concepts. This can be done by…

In conventional digital game-based learning, geographic maps are generally used to provide students with the whole picture of the gaming contexts, while the concepts to be learned are separately presented as individual gaming objects. Scholars have indicated the problems of such a gaming content design, in which students could encounter…

Chemistry education games are helpful tools in chemistry classes, although their design and production are challenging. It is acknowledged that the number of chemical equations is enormous and varied, so it is rather difficult for beginners to memorize equations within a limited time. In a sense, beginners' interest in exploring chemistry is…

The COVID-19 pandemic has drawn the attention of educators to the blended learning model. This study developed a remote blended game-based learning activity that integrates digital game--based learning (DGBL) and blended learning (including online synchronous and asynchronous learning). This method emphasizes that in the online synchronous…

This study explores the role of the perceived image of accounting in determining key variables that influence high school accounting students' acceptance of using cloud accounting as a new technology. We adopted the technology acceptance model (TAM) as its theoretical framework. High school accounting students enrolled in the 'Kyoto Subaru High…

This paper presents a new developed methodology for teaching and learning subjects that although are very important in the modern digital society are neglected in high school education programs: cybersecurity and cyber safety. A Study among the EU high schools in 2021-2022 revealed that computer science teachers are not regularly upgrading their…

The authors describe Hexacago Health Academy (HHA) 2.0, a five-year summer intervention designed to increase interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) among mostly Black high school students in Chicago. The program features public health fundamentals and game design using principles of systems thinking, social-cognitive…

Studies of educational games often treat them as "black boxes" (Black and Wiliam in Phi Delta Kappan 80: 139-48, 1998; Buckley et al. in Int J LearnTechnol 5:166-190, 2010; Buckley et al. in J Sci Educ Technol 13: 23-41, 2010) and measure their effectiveness by exposing a treatment group of students to the game and comparing their…

Mathematics achievement of Indonesian students has not been relatively optimal whereby most of the students still have low mathematics achievement. Hence, the present study develops and produces a digital game called Ucing Sumput that is valid, practical, and effective in enhancing the mathematics achievement of Indonesian students. Research and…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) permeates every aspect of our daily lives and is no longer a subject reserved for a select few in higher education but is essential knowledge that our youth need for the future. Much is unknown about the level of AI knowledge that is age and developmentally appropriate for high school, let alone about how to teach AI…

This study assesses the effects of an educational gamification program on motivation, engagement, and flow for high school students from socially disadvantaged communities. A quantitative comparison was carried out with pretest--post-test measurements with intervention and control groups. A total of 216 students from two high schools in socially…

One approach that has been gaining significant attention among chemistry education scholars and practitioners is the employment of game-based learning to teach least-learned and difficult topics at various educational levels. One reason for this is that it promotes active, constructive learning and makes learning science a fun experience through…

Purpose: Videogames are complex, meaningful and multimodal texts. This study aims to explore how students could learn about narratives from, and be engaged by, playing a videogame and how a teacher adapted their pedagogy to incorporate the young adult videogame (YA game) "What Remains of Edith Finch" into an English Language Arts…
