This systematic review explores the burgeoning intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications and self-regulated learning (SRL) in higher education. Aiming to synthesize empirical studies, we employed a qualitative approach to scrutinize AI's role in supporting SRL processes. Through a meticulous selection process adhering to PRISMA…

Flow is described as a state in which people become so involved or engrossed in an activity that nothing else seems to matter (Csikszentmihalyi, 2009). This state of consciousness seems to occur when a person is involved in a task and seemingly unable to stop. Flow states are marked by (a) a perceived balance of skills and challenge, (b)…

This article describes the design, implementation, and evaluation of the gamification of laboratory activities in a General Chemistry course at the Federal University of Ceará in Brazil. In the gamified laboratory, seven experiments traditionally performed in the course were transformed into ten missions, incorporating game elements such as…

In this article, we delve into the application of the online game-based learning and testing platform Kahoot! with second language (L2) learners of Russian and explore how this tool can enhance our students' experiences. Following a brief overview of digital game-based learning (DGBL) and previous research on L2 learning through Kahoot!, we…

Digital game-based vocabulary learning (DGBVL) integrates key game elements such as Challenges, Rewards, Human-Computer Interactions (HCI), Multimedia, and Fantasy. Although the overall effectiveness of digital games in enhancing English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) vocabulary knowledge development is well-established, the specific roles of…

The introductory programming disciplines, which include the teaching of algorithms and computational logic, have high failure and dropout rates. Developing Computational Thinking in students can contribute to learning programming fundamentals by building algorithmic and problem-solving skills. However, keeping students engaged in training such…

Fostering students' knowledge and courage to face illegal or immoral problems is a critical aim in educational settings. However, it is challenging for students who lack knowledge and social experience to comprehend the sins behind the immoral cases and have the moral courage to deal with those problems. Therefore, in the present study, an…

This paper seeks to construct a narrative woven around the academic ventures and tribulations of third-year students who, in their initial university chapter, stumbled on the academic hurdles of General English 1 and 2 examinations and to immerse in a realm where digital game-based learning takes centre stage, exploring its potential as a…

The use of the metaverse in education has gained increasing attention as a potential supplement to traditional teaching methods. This study aimed to investigate the impact of experiential learning on students' intent to use metaverse learning platforms and to explore how the metaverse can support these approaches. The study included participants…

The paper presents conclusions from research into the opportunities to employ games in university education and it constitutes a description of a number of projects carried out at the Institute of Pedagogy at the University of Wroclaw. The project encompassed: (1) the use of location-based games in cultural education classes (Kulturalny Wroclaw…

The digital world demands graduates who are accustomed to deal with technology. Blended learning is one of the strategies by combining online media with face-to-face classes. It cannot be denied that students who interact with technology experience stress and tension. This condition have an impact on the learning process so that a way out is…

Despite the rapid advancement of virtual reality (VR) and its integration into educational settings, the adoption of metaverse learning platforms often encounters challenges. These include technical limitations and a lack of understanding of how these platforms impact learning effectiveness and user engagement. Previous studies have revealed mixed…

For years, researchers have recognized the expectation within the business community that business school graduates possess a working knowledge of spreadsheet applications. Academics continue to seek effective ways to teach these skills in an academic setting. This exercise uses Wordle, a five-letter word guessing game, to teach students…

Teachers are generally focused on optimizing the teaching-learning process and fostering high levels of student engagement, participation, and motivation. To address this challenge, this work presents a gamification experience implemented to teach content related to family involvement and educational programs in two courses--one at master's degree…

Computational thinking (CT) has become an essential skill nowadays. For young students, CT competency is required to prepare them for future jobs. This competency can facilitate students' understanding of programming knowledge which has been a challenge for many novices pursuing a computer science degree. This study focuses on designing and…
