Purpose: This study aims to explore the potential benefits of integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) with Social Emotional Learning (SEL) in educational settings. Design/methodology/approach: A systematic review of emerging AI technologies such as virtual reality, chatbots, sentiment analysis tools, gamification and wearable devices is conducted…

The popularity of gaming has grown exponentially over the past twenty years, spanning the mediums of video games, simulations, role-playing games, and board games. Previous research into game-based learning and skill development has highlighted the neurological, mental, physical, and emotional benefits of gaming (Bediou et al., 2018; Chohan et…

Gamification is a promising method proposed to solve the motivational problems of online learners and enhance their performance. However, the evidence regarding why and how gamification might work and its effects on these outcomes is inconclusive. In order to provide more evidence to the ongoing discussion in the gamification field, the current…

As educational needs change, gamified immersive virtual reality (I-VR) can enhance learning by making it more interactive. Immersive virtual reality is used more in science than in the humanities. This study uses the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to explore factors that affect students' intentions to use gamified I-VR, particularly in…

In the modern educational landscape, the integration of gamification into hybrid learning environments has emerged as a promising approach to enhance student outcomes. However, there remains a lack of comprehensive frameworks for designing gamified hybrid courses and validating their impact on student outcomes. This paper proposes a design…

This study investigates the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on personalized learning, automated assessment and feedback, intelligent tutoring systems, and student engagement in online learning environments. The research focuses on fourth-year English major students at a university in the Mekong Delta region, utilizing a mixed-methods…

This study examines the impact of the Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) application, Memrise, on the vocabulary learning motivation of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners and interprets the findings of the study based on Second Langugae Acquisition (SLA) theories to bridge the gap between theory and practice. Within this context,…

Purpose: Education is undergoing digital transformation intensified by COVID-19. In this context, gamification is an attractive alternative based on the use of elements of the games with educational purposes. However, it keeps the educational content to be learned as a central element without neglecting the "fun," which contributing to…

Purpose: In an effort to enhance the student experience and achieve complex learning outcomes the use of gamification in higher education is increasing. Using two case studies, this paper explores the efficacy of two discrete inclusions of gamification in entrepreneurial education. Design/methodology/approach: In the first case study, students…

Using an integration of the Attention, Relevance, Confidence, and Satisfaction (ARCS) model and the Self-Determination Theory (SDT). This study explored university students' motivation to learn through the use of gamification. A quantitative approach was used to obtain data from 60 students who participated in a gamified course utilizing a…

Since the late twentieth century, with the development of the Internet of Things (IoT), the IoT covers the application of comprehensive knowledge and technology in the fields of circuitry, physics, mechanics, and information, making it a suitable topic for hands-on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) activities. The IoT covers…

The combination of education and robots is becoming an increasingly important issue. Although researchers have conducted some studies on educational robotics in STEM education at the undergraduate level, no research examined the effects of gamified educational robotics on participants' motivation and creativity. Therefore, this study examines the…

This study aims to demonstrate the efficacy of gamification in developing HTML programming skills and academic achievement motivation for 10th-grade students. Despite the significance of computer programming in developing students' thinking, many students still need more motivation to learn it. One of the entertaining strategies of computer…

This narrative self-study explores an elementary school teacher's curriculum-making during a critical incident in their career (March 2020-May 2020 and August 2020-December 2020) teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using narrative inquiry and memory-work, I consider the tensions within curricular forces and identity and the ways in which my…

Objectives: Analysis of the player profiles of professors is a fruitful line of research because player profiles may influence the design of gamified situations. We studied a sample of 243 university professors in Mexico to analyze the player profiles with which they identify and those they consider most effective didactically in gamified…
