Jennifer Newell-Caito; Edward Bernard – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Pedagogical research over the past decade has shown that chemistry courses have high failure rates and low accessibility. The implementation of novel active-learning approaches has great potential to offset these trends. Fundamental concepts that serve as "pinch points" are ripe targets for designing innovative, gamified course materials…

VanMeter, Rebecca A.; Vander Schee, Brian A. – Marketing Education Review, 2021
Active learning engages students where they enjoy the learning process and gain a better understanding of course content. Active learning, such as an in-class game, can mitigate inattentive listening to material presented in a traditional lecture format. The Merch Game is an innovative, in-class retail simulation game that uses student…

Garcia, Fabrício Wickey da Silva; Oliveira, Sandro Ronaldo Bezerra; Carvalho, Elielton da Costa – Informatics in Education, 2023
The contents taught in the programming subjects have a great relevance in the formation of computing students. However, these subjects are characterized by high failure rates, as they require logical reasoning and mathematical knowledge. Thus, establishing knowledge through the subject of algorithms can help students to overcome these difficulties…

Maurer, Karsten; Hudiburgh, Lynette; Werwinski, Lisa – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2020
Learning the fundamentals of probability and random variables can be a struggle for many students. Games by their nature require active participation and reward mastery, lending naturally to the framework of active learning. In this study, we designed and evaluated the efficacy of a lab activity using a game where strategy hinges on sums of dice…

Paciarotti, Claudia; Bertozzi, Gabriele; Sillaots, Martin – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
Gamification is usually defined as the use of game structure components in circumstances that are not commonly associated with games. In engineering studies, Gamification and its sub-concept of Serious Games are rather widespread pedagogical models. Just like in other application scopes, the approach to their utilisation or analysis is always…
