Purpose: Mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) apps such as Duolingo have great potential for promoting learners' motivation to learn a second language (L2). However, little research has investigated how this motivational impact takes place. Additionally, despite the flexibility of mobile learning, most existing studies are conducted in…

Collaborative mathematical argumentation plays an important role in mathematics education. However, students often focus on the efficiency of solving problems and neglect the importance of expressing statements and reasoning in the collaborative argumentation process. Due to the weak knowledge changes in group argumentation, students' learning…

The primary objective of this research is to elucidate the factors influencing the acceptance and use of gamified web tools among K-12 teachers in Turkey, according to the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT, Venkatesh et al., 2003). The study employed a causal research design, which allowed for the investigation of…

It is known that teachers commonly utilize learning platforms equipped with Learning Analytics Dashboards (LAD) to support students in their Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) endeavors. However, students may struggle to effectively employ LAD due to a lack of sufficient metacognitive skills. Co-regulation of learning (CoRL) has been proven to…

In recent years, gamification has appeared to be an enjoyable and appealing instructional approach in educational settings. This paper reports the implementation and evaluation of gamified instruction to support learners of English as a foreign language in a linguistics course. Several gamification elements, such as experience points, badges,…

Designing learning solutions in digitally mediated contexts requires attention to the level of immersion, interactivity, personalization, and engagement promoted, to which the incorporation of active learning methods and gamified strategies can be strategic. However, more research is needed on how teachers use technology-enhanced active learning…

Contribution: This research explores the effectiveness of a proposed teaching strategy in blockchain education, finding that it enhances learning outcomes, cognitive well-being, and student engagement in tertiary education, ultimately resulting in a shallower learning curve for STEM knowledge. Background: In the context of Industry 4.0, blockchain…

Tangible programming tools have become a mainstream teaching aid in gamification programming learning (GPL) due to their interactivity and ability to enhance novice learners' computational thinking and spatial reasoning skills. However, comparing the relative efficacy of different programming tools that simultaneously support these skills was not…

Data science education in Japan extends from elementary to high school students. However, some studies show that this has not enhanced interest or curiosity in data science. Therefore, gamification appears to be an efficient method for encouraging high school students' interest in data science, with research indicating that video games are…

Background/purpose: This research aimed at designing an educational program based on gamification for teaching mathematics as required by the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) to determine its impact on advancing strategic competence among fourth-grade male students in the first semester of Academic Year 1445AH in…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to test and integrative model that forecasts a range of attributes as both antecedents and consequents of using a gamification app. Design/methodology/approach: The proposed model includes factors from the technology acceptance model (TAM) [perceived ease of use (PEU), perceived usefulness (PU) and attitude…

This study aims to provide a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of gamification research in higher education from 2015-2024, highlighting key trends, influential contributors, and emerging themes. It seeks to address gaps in understanding the intellectual structure, global collaboration networks, and integration of advanced technologies in…

We conducted a scoping review on game-based learning (GBL) for mathematics teacher education. In recent decades, GBL has been largely applied to K-12 education contexts. GBL has aimed to promote students' deeper understanding of mathematics knowledge via game-based activities. With the evolving needs of GBL in mathematics education, recent…

With the advent of big data and advances in technology, psychological assessments have become increasingly sophisticated and complex. Nevertheless, traditional psychometric issues concerning the validity, reliability, and measurement bias of such assessments remain fundamental in determining whether score inferences of human attributes are…

This research aimed to develop metaverse virtual learning management based on gamification techniques model (MVLM-Gt model) and to evaluate the appropriateness of the model. The research methodology was divided into two parts in accordance with these aims. The first part was the design of the learning step using metaverse virtual learning…
